A Resolution authorizing the City of Central Point to apply for a Local Government Grant from the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department for purchase and installation of an accessible play structure designed for 2 – 5 year olds at Robert Pfaff Park and delegating authority to the City Manager to sign the application Parks and Public Works Director Matt Samitore presented a resolution authorizing the City to apply for an Oregon Parks and Recreation Department grant to replace the toddler play structure at Robert Pfaff Park. The total cost for the play structure is $205,973.25; the grant requires a 40% match from the City. The grant application will be submitted in April, with the awards announced in Fall 2024. If funded, the project would be included in the 2025-2027 biennial budget. The project would begin in Fall 2025 by removing the existing play structure. The new structure would be in place by December 2025, precluding any unexpected delays. Mike Parsons moved to approve Resolution No. 1776, a Resolution authorizing the City of Central Point to apply for a Local Government Grant from the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department for the purchase and installation of an accessible play structure designed for 2-5-year-old at Robert Pfaff Park and delegating authority to the City Manager to sign the application. RESULT: APPROVED [UNANIMOUS] MOVER: Michael Parsons, At Large SECONDER: Neil Olsen, Ward I AYES: Williams, Olsen, Johnson, Thueson, Browning, Hernandez, Parsons VIII. BUSINESS A. Central Point Little League Complex Project Update Parks and Public Works Director Matt Samitore presented an update on the Central Point Little League Complex project to the Council. The City needs to decide how to proceed with the project; multiple options were presented. Option 1 is rehabilitating the existing complex using a combination of contractor and city forces. Construction would still re-orient the site to the designed configuration, but the site would not be viable for year-round play. The estimated cost for this option is 2.1 million. Construction would start this summer and into late fall. All fields would be redone for this cost, but the parking lot and lights are not included in this option. Option 2 is proceeding with the existing design and would be done over two years and two phases, the first phase being one new field, utilities, entrance, and new concessions and restrooms. Estimated at 2 million, and the possibility for one non- turf field. Phase two would be two turf fields estimated at 2.5-3 million; this still leaves the parking lot, lights, large field, and smaller t-ball field unfunded. 5.A Packet Pg. 4 Mi n u t e s A c c e p t a n c e : M i n u t e s o f F e b 8 , 2 0 2 4 7 : 0 0 P M ( C O N S E N T A G E N D A ) City of Central Point City Council Minutes February 8, 2024 Page 3 Option 3 delays the construction until 2025, allowing the City to actively fundraise and create a complete financial package to present to the Council. Based on current information, staff estimates the City could have around 5 million dollars. This would still leave the parking lot, lights, large field, and smaller field unfunded. Option 4 asks taxpayers for a $6 million-dollar bond, coupled with existing dollars, which would be an $8-million-dollar project. This option would include all fields and lighting. However, this option would require the community to support the bond. Council had concerns over the communication with the Moore's input on this project as they are a large contributor. They also questioned if the City approached the School District for support and other larger businesses. The staff did not get a chance to talk to the Moore's before this meeting, and a decision needs to be made on which option the Council wants staff to move forward with before they can reach out to other contributors. The Council responded they liked Option 2 with a new field with new infrastructure; once this phase is complete, the City could reach out to other possible contributors. They also agreed with Option 1, giving the community three fields to start and completing the project later. Central Point Little League representatives spoke to the Council; they prefer to play on the natural fields and like the hybrid model. Staff will meet and get more input from the Central Point Little League and the Moores and bring back more information. City Attorney Dan O'Connor addressed the Council regarding the land use approval process in Jackson County. It takes a lot of work, and it is recommended to start the process soon to stay on target with the timing of completing the project. B. Planning Commission Report Planner III Justin Gindlesperger presented the Planning Commission report from the February 6, 2024, meeting to the Council. Three items were on the agenda, including discussing and considering the City's Hazard Mitigation Plan and two quasi-judicial public hearings for a Minor Comprehensive Plan Map and Minor Zoning Map Amendment to support housing production. C. Environmental Management Element Update Planner III Justin Gindlesperger presented the Environmental Management Element Update to the Council. On October 26, 2023, the City Council considered the draft Environmental Management Element relative to how the City will comply with Statewide Planning Goal 5 concerning preserving significant wetland and riparian corridor resources. A detailed assessment of the potential impacts of the policy options on properties and structures in the City with a focus on the areas impacted the most was presented. 5.A Packet Pg. 5 Mi n u t e s A c c e p t a n c e : M i n u t e s o f F e b 8 , 2 0 2 4 7 : 0 0 P M ( C O N S E N T A G E N D A ) City of Central Point City Council Minutes February 8, 2024 Page 4 Council was concerned regarding what, if any, the impact would be on flood insurance for residents in these areas. Staff responded that this would not impact flood insurance. The Council has directed staff to move forward with the Safe Harbor approach as it would have the least effect on the number of properties in the City. D. Emergency Communication of Southern Oregon (ECSO 911) Legislative Fund Request City Manager Chris Clayton presented the Emergency Communications of Southern Oregon (ECSO 911) Legislative Fund Request to the Council. In 2014, ECSO 911 began a study and preliminary work on upgrading the outdated public safety radio infrastructure to modernize the system and provide more robust coverage in our geographically diverse region. After conducting the study and consultation with a national radio consulting firm, ECSO 911 approached Jackson County voters with a $28,000,000 measure in 2019 to approve general obligation bonds to improve the public safety radio system. The measure passed with 58% voter approval. Bonds were issued by Jackson County in 2020, and the project moved forward. As a result of inflation, unexpected circumstances, and expenses beyond the control of ECSO 911, the cost of completing the project has increased. ECSO 911's conservative budget shortfall estimate is approximately $4.6 million. The timeline is critical. Bond proceeds must be spent by March 2026. For the system to go live, construction must be completed in 2024, and the new system must be up and running simultaneously with the current one for approximately six months. Services will then shift to the new system, which must be operated for a few months before system acceptance. The final release of bond funds hinges upon final system acceptance—clearly, every month counts. The council agreed to the City signing the legislative funding request letter for the Capital Construction Request - Emergency Communications of Southern Oregon (ECSO 911). IX.

The 2024 Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan updates the City’s plan from 2020 and keeps the City on a consistent hazard planning schedule with other communities in the Rogue Valley. The regional partnership provided an opportunity to combine resources and include additional stakeholders for all communities involved, keeping stakeholders informed and engaged in mitigation planning and implementation efforts. The Central Point NHMP is a ‘city addendum’ to the Jackson County Plan, and is therefore similar in form and function, creating a consistent model of hazard planning and mitigation throughout the valley. The Central Point ‘city addendum’ uses the mission statement and goals defined in the overall plan, but includes City specific mitigation action items. The update also provides a list of mitigation successes since the previous plan was adopted, updated management plans used to develop mitigation action items, and updated City profile and community characteristics. By keeping the NHMP current, the City of Central Point is eligible to receive non-emergency related disaster funding sources through FEMA. Access to these resources can be critical in leveraging limited resources to help protect people and property in Central Point. Additionally NHMP planning implementation helps the City keep flood insurance premiums lower community-wide through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) Community Rating System (CRS). The NHMP will be incorporated into the Environmental Management Element in order to satisfy requirements from Statewide Planning Goal 7 (Areas Subject to Natural Hazards). Although the NHMP is not a policy document, it is reviewed and adopted through the Legislative Process. The Citizen’s Advisory Committee (CAC) and Planning Commission reviewed the NHMP and provided favorable recommendations to the Council. At the February 22 meeting, staff will present the findings of the final draft to the NHMP. 7.A Packet Pg. 14 Attached is a copy of the Central Point ‘City Addendum’ Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan, which includes an introduction to natural hazard risks, risk assessments and the hazard profile for Central Point. A webpage provides updates on the Hazard Mitigation Plan process and includes the County-wide plan along with City and special district addendums (www.centralpointoregon.gov/floodplain/page/hazard-mitigation-plan) Issues The primary issue in considering the Hazard Mitigation Plan is to identify local policies and actions that can be implemented to reduce risk and future losses from hazards. The City of Central Point is subject to a wide array of natural hazards. Although the occurrence and severity of hazards has been historically limited, the City has experienced winter storms, floods and an increasing incidence of wildfires. Hazard mitigation planning is important to understand the characteristics of potential hazards, risks to people, buildings, infrastructure and property and what actions can be taken to lessen exposure to the identified risks before a disaster events occurs. Attachments Attachment “A” - City of Central Point Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan Attachment “B” - Resolution No. ___ Action Open a public hearing and consider the proposed Hazard Mitigation Plan and 1) approve; 2) approve with revisions; or 3) deny the application. Recommendation Approve Resolution No. ___, a Resolution adopting the 2024 City of Central Point Addendum to the Jackson County Multi-Jurisdictional Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan. Recommended Motion I move to approve Resolution No.___, a Resolution by the City Council of Central Point adopting the 2024 City of Central Point Addendum to the Jackson County Multi-Jurisdictional Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan.

a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-1 Introduction Purpose This is an update to the Central Point addendum to the Jackson County Multi-Jurisdictional Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (MNHMP, NHMP). This addendum supplements information contained in Volume I (Basic Plan), which serves as the NHMP foundation, and Volume II (Appendices), which provide additional information. This addendum meets the following requirements: • Multi-Jurisdictional Plan Adoption §201.6(c)(5), • Multi-Jurisdictional Participation §201.6(a)(3), • Multi-Jurisdictional Mitigation Strategy §201.6(c)(3)(iv) and • Multi-Jurisdictional Risk Assessment §201.6(c)(2)(iii). Updates to Central Point’s addendum are further discussed throughout the NHMP and within Volume II, Appendix B, which provides an overview of alterations to the document that took place during the update process. Central Point adopted their addendum to the Jackson County Multi-jurisdictional NHMP on [date], 2024. FEMA Region X approved the Jackson County NHMP on [date], 2024 and the City’s addendum on [date], 2024. With approval of this NHMP, the City is now eligible for non-disaster and disaster mitigation project grants through [date-1], 2029. NHMP Process, Participation, and Adoption This section of the NHMP addendum addresses 44 CFR 201.6(c)(5), Plan Adoption and 44 CFR 201.6(a)(3), Participation. In addition to establishing a comprehensive, city-level mitigation strategy, the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA2K) and the regulations contained in Title 44 CFR Part 201 require that jurisdictions maintain an approved NHMP to receive federal funds for mitigation projects. Local adoption and federal approval of this NHMP ensures that the city will remain eligible for non- disaster and disaster mitigation project grants. Central Point adopted a stand-alone Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan (2020) in January, 2021, but will now be included as an addendum to the 2024 Jackson County NHMP. The Oregon Partnership for Disaster Resilience (OPDR) at the University of Oregon’s Institute for Policy Research and Engagement (IPRE) partnered with the Oregon Department of Emergency Management (OEM), Jackson County, and Central Point to update and incorporate Central Point’s NHMP as an addendum to the County’s NHMP. This project is funded through the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Hazard Mitigation Competitive Grant Program. Members of the Central Point NHMP steering committee also participated in the County NHMP update process (Volume II, Appendix B). 7.A.a Packet Pg. 19 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-2 By creating a NHMP, locally adopting it, and having it approved by FEMA, Central Point will maintain eligibility for FEMA Hazard Mitigation Assistance grant program funds. The Jackson County NHMP and Central Point addendum are the result of a collaborative effort between residents, public agencies, non-profit organizations, the private sector, and regional organizations. A project steering committee guided the process of developing the NHMP. Convener and Committee The Central Point Community Planner/Floodplain Administrator served as the designated convener of the NHMP update and will take the lead in implementing, maintaining, and updating the addendum to the Jackson County NHMP in collaboration with the designated convener of the Jackson County NHMP (Emergency Manager). Representatives from the City of Central Point steering committee met formally three times and informally, to discuss updates to their addendum (Attachment A). The steering committee reviewed and revised the City’s NHMP, with particular focus on the risk assessment and mitigation strategy (action items). (See Appendix A for full public engagement plan.) This addendum reflects decisions made at the designated meetings and during subsequent work and communication with Jackson County Emergency Management and the OPDR. The Central Point Steering Committee was comprised of the following representatives: • Justin Gindlesperger, Community Planner III/Floodplain Administrator, City of Central Point • Derek Zwagerman, Building Official, City of Central Point • Mark Northrop, Deputy Fire Marshall, Jackson County Fire District No. 3 • Desiree Badizadegan, Police Office Manager, City of Central Point • Dave Jacob, Parks Planner, City of Central Point • Matt Samitore, Parks & Public Works Director, City of Central Point • Derek Zwagerman, Building Official, City of Central Point • Taneea Browning, City Council, Small Business Owner • Larry Martin, Environmental Element Steering Committee • Kora Mousseaux, Jackson County Soil & Water Conservation District • Ryan Haynes, Housing Authority of Jackson County Central Point Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan Steering Committee included representatives from City departments associated with preventive measures (Building Official), property protection (Floodplain Manager), natural resource protection (Parks & Recreation Director, Environmental Services), emergency services (Police Department and Fire District #3), structural flood control (Public Works Director), and public information (City Council). The Central Point Steering Committee also sent two representatives to the Jackson County NHMP Steering Committee (Planner/Floodplain Manager and Fire District #3). Steering committee members possessed familiarity with Central Point’s community and how it is affected by natural hazard events. The steering committee was closely involved throughout the development of the NHMP and served as the local oversight body for the NHMP’s development. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 20 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-3 The steering committee guided the Central Point update process through several steps including hazard assessment, problem identification, goal confirmation and prioritization, action item review and development, and information sharing, to update the NHMP and to make the NHMP as comprehensive as possible. Based on their involvement in hazard mitigation projects or planning, and/or their interest as a neighboring jurisdiction, representatives from the following agencies were invited to participate on the NHMP update. Some of these participated at Steering Committee meetings while others reviewed drafts of the plan and provided feedback by email. Other Government and Stakeholder Representatives: • Avista Natural Gas • Pacific Power and Light • Rogue Valley Sewer Services • Medford Water Commission • Jackson County Housing Authority • Jackson County Emergency Services • Rogue Valley Soil and Water Conservation District • Oregon Department of Transportation • Rogue Valley Council of Governments • US Army Corps of Engineers • Department of Land Conservation and Development, NFIP Coordinator • DOGAMI Stakeholders were included in the planning process. Unlike the Steering Committee, stakeholders for the update were not included in all stages of the planning process, but their input was included to inform the Steering Committee and provide additional perspectives from the community. NHMP Implementation and Maintenance The City Council will be responsible for adopting the Central Point addendum to the Jackson County NHMP. This addendum designates a steering committee and a convener to oversee the development and implementation of action items. Because the City addendum is part of the County’s multi-jurisdictional NHMP, the City will look for opportunities to partner with the County. The City’s steering committee will convene after re-adoption of the Central Point NHMP addendum on an annual schedule. The County is meeting on a semi-annual basis and will provide opportunities for the cities to report on NHMP implementation and maintenance during their meetings. The City’s Planning Director will serve as the convener and will be responsible for assembling the steering committee. The steering committee will be responsible for: • Reviewing existing action items to determine suitability of funding; 7.A.a Packet Pg. 21 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-4 • Reviewing existing and new risk assessment data to identify issues that may not have been identified at NHMP creation; • Educating and training new steering committee members on the NHMP and mitigation actions in general; • Assisting in the development of funding proposals for priority action items; • Discussing methods for continued public involvement; • Evaluating effectiveness of the NHMP at achieving its purpose and goals (use Table 4-1, Volume I, Section 4, as one tool to help measure effectiveness); and • Documenting successes and lessons learned during the year. The convener will also remain active in the County’s implementation and maintenance process (Volume I, Section 4). The steering committee will be responsible for activities outlined in Volume I, Section 4. The City will utilize the same action item prioritization process as the County (Volume I, Section 4 and Volume II, Appendix D). Implementation through Existing Programs Many of the Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan’s recommendations are consistent with the goals and objectives of the City’s existing plans and policies. Where possible, Central Point will implement the NHMP’s recommended actions through existing plans and policies. Plans and policies already in existence have support from residents, businesses, and policy makers. Many land-use, comprehensive, and strategic plans get updated regularly, allowing them to adapt to changing conditions and needs. Implementing the NHMP’s action items through such plans and policies increases their likelihood of being supported and implemented. Central Point’s acknowledged comprehensive plan is the City of Central Point Comprehensive Plan (last updated in 2019). The Oregon Land Conservation and Development Commission first acknowledged this plan in 1980. The City implements the plan through the Community Development Code. Central Point currently has the following plans that relate to natural hazard mitigation. For a complete list visit the City’s website: • Comprehensive Plan • Transportation System Plan (2008) • Central Point Zoning Code (Title 17) • Building Codes and Standards: Oregon Structural Specialty Code (Commercial) and Oregon Residential Specialty Code. • City of Central Point Stormwater Management Plan (2021) • Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance • Central Point TMDL Implementation Plan (2020) • Emergency Operations Plan • Storm Drain Protection Municipal Code Chapter 8.05 7.A.a Packet Pg. 22 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-5 • Rogue Valley Stormwater Quality Design Manual • Strategic Plan Forward, A City-Wide Strategic Plan • City of Central Point Evacuation Zones Map Existing Authorities Hazard mitigation can be executed at a local scale through three (3) methods: integrating hazard mitigation actions into other local planning documents (i.e., plan integration), adopting building codes that account for best practices in structural hardening, and codifying land use regulations and zoning designations that prescribe mitigation into development requirements. The extent to which a municipality or multi-jurisdictional effort leverages these approaches is an indicator of that community’s capabilities. The following provides a brief synopsis of some of the more important coordinating plans and policies of Central Point in the integration of hazard mitigation and long-range planning: Strategic Plan Forward, A City Wide Strategic Plan The City of Central Point maintains a strategic plan in order to “… guide future decision-making as the community grows and changes.”1 The guiding value of Resilience from the Strategic Plan is carried forward in the Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan by providing a foundation for the City and its residents to prepare for, adapt and respond to changes and sudden impacts. Central Point Comprehensive Plan The Central Point Comprehensive Plan is the guiding policy document for land use and growth- related planning for the City. In order to properly identify the community’s risks, the Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan relies heavily on the Population Element, Land Use Element, Transportation Element, and Regional Plan Element to identify the community’s changing demographics, future population growth, and the physical direction of future growth. Oregon’s Statewide Planning Goal 7 requires comprehensive planning within every jurisdiction that is designed to reduce risks to people and property from natural hazards. Natural Hazards are covered in the Environmental Management element of the Comprehensive Plan. Its aim is to develop a clear description of existing environmental resources, history, natural hazards, and other environmental concerns and from this description, develop a comprehensive program for the management of the environment that is in balance with growth and development. This section was last updated in March 1983. In 2019, Central Point updated three elements of its Comprehensive Plan (Housing, Parks, and Urbanization) to address an expanded urban growth boundary. Planned updates to the jurisdiction’s Goal 7 element or its broader comprehensive plan will reflect the data and findings within this NHMP and integrate analyses of future climate and natural hazard impacts into the community’s long-range plans. 1 Central Point Strategic Plan 2040, September 8, 2020, Resolution No. 1639. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 23 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-6 Land Use Regulations Existing land use policies that define zoning and address hazardous conditions provide another source of mitigation capability. Central Point’s municipal code was last updated in July, 2023. • Title 8 – Health and Safety, including 8.05 Storm Drain Protection and 8.24 Flood Damage Prevention (last updated by Ordinance 2079 in 2021). • Title 15 – Buildings and Construction, including uniform standards for public works construction projects. • Title 16 -- Subdivision Regulations, including requirements for sewage disposal, storm water drainage and flood control, landslide risk assessment, and expansive soils reviews. • Title 17 – Zoning, the purpose of which is to encourage the most appropriate use of land; to conserve and stabilize the value of property; to facilitate fire and police protection; to provide adequate open space for light and air; to minimize congestion of streets; to promote orderly growth of the city; to prevent undue concentrations of population; to facilitate adequate provision of community facilities; and in general to promote in other ways public health, safety, convenience and general welfare. As such, it addresses numerous hazards identified within the NHMP, including fire, earthquake, drought, extreme heat, flooding, and winter storm resilience. The Central Point Community Development Department is the oversight entity for all matters related to current and long-range land use planning in the city. It is responsible for the administration of state, county, and local land use policies and regulations as they relate to the preservation and quality development of property lying within the city limits and urban growth boundary (UGB). The Planning Department periodically updates development codes and long- range plans to ensure adequate public facilities are available to serve new development, preserve community livability, and enhance the resilience of Central Point. They work closely with the County and neighboring jurisdictions to ensure plans are aligned. Central Point has begun a Title 17 Zoning Code Rewrite Project, which will include multiple phases, between 2023-2025. Structural Building Codes The Oregon Legislature recently adopted updated building codes for both residential (2023 Oregon Residential Specialty Code) and commercial structures (2022) since the last update of this Plan. These building codes are based on the 2021 version of the International Building Code, International Fire Code, and International Existing Building Code. As a result, both new residential and commercial structures will be required to build according to the latest seismic and wind hardening standards in addition to requiring fire resistant building materials. The Central Point Building Division administers the 2023 edition of the Oregon Residential Specialty Code. Emergency Operations Plan The City’s Emergency Operations Plan establishes guidance for how the City will respond to a major emergency or disaster. The guidance describes the roles and responsibilities of the City departments and personnel when an incident occurs. The emphasis of the plan is on incident 7.A.a Packet Pg. 24 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-7 management instead of a hazard-specific response. It provides a framework for a coordinated, City-wide response to a natural hazard event. Storm Drainage Master Plan The Stormwater Master Plan (SWMP) establishes a capital improvement program to address stormwater capacity and water quality issues. The SWMP identifies areas within the City that lack capacity and may be subject to widespread flooding. Major recommendations include replacing under-sized components, incorporating water quality designs into upgrades, and installing retrofits on structural components. MS4 Permit In 2019, Central Point received a stand-alone Phase II Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit for non-point source stormwater from Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). The permit program has six areas of focus that are consistent with EPA's Federal Clean Water Act: public education, public involvement, illicit discharge detection and elimination, construction, post-construction, and municipal operations. The Stormwater Management Program (SWMP) Document, 2019-2024, describes the storm system improvements that will occur each year during the 5-year planning cycle to reduce the potential for flooding. See Mitigation Successes for examples projects that have occurred since the adoption of the latest NHMP. Urban Growth Boundary Amendment (2019-2022) In 2022, Central Point expanded its urban growth boundary to include 394 acres of land in response to identified needs for housing, employment land, and parks. Community Wildfire Protection Plan The Jackson County Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) will be incorporated into this Plan as a functioning annex. The NHMP will also be integrated into the City’s Capital Improvement Plan, to be adopted by March, 2024. National Flood Insurance Program/FEMA Flood Insurance Study The Community Development Director is responsible for administering the day-to-day activities of the city’s floodplain program. They are assisted by the Building Official, the Engineering Department within Public Works, and by the City Administrator. Specifically, the Planning Director: • maintains and administers Central Point’s floodplain regulations; • reviews and issues floodplain development permits; • maintains elevation certificates for all new and substantially improved structures (and maintains an extensive database of historic elevation certificates); • ensures that encroachments do not occur within the regulated floodway; • implements measures to ensure that new and substantially improved structures are protected from flood losses; • maintains floodplain studies and maps and makes this information available to the public; 7.A.a Packet Pg. 25 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-8 • maintains a flood information website with digital flood insurance rate map (DFIRM) data; • conducts site visits to assess conditions and provide technical assistance to the public; • maintains a library of historical flood related information; • informs the public of flood insurance requirements; and • conducts outreach and training about flood hazards and development within the floodplain. In 2021, the Central Point City Council adopted Ordinance 2079, which introduced a new version of Chapter 8.24 Flood Hazard Prevention. This code continues to rely upon the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) for Jackson County, Oregon and Incorporated Areas, dated May 3, 2011, with accompanying flood insurance rate maps (FIRM) and digital flood insurance rate maps (DFIRM). Their code section is based on the Oregon Model Flood Hazard Prevention code, which includes provisions addressing substantial improvement/substantial damage. Central Point participates in the NFIP’s Community Rating System (CRS) program. The CRS is a sub-program within the NFIP created to recognize and encourage floodplain management practices that exceed the minimum NFIP standards. Central Point has a CRS rating of “Class 6.” Class 6 community members receive a 20 percent (20%) discount on flood insurance premiums for homes in the SFHA. Public Information Activities The City publishes timely articles in the City newsletter on flood-related topics (insurance, improvements/maintenance, flood season, etc..). Yearly mailing to owners w/in SFHA, Pre-FIRM owners, rep loss properties, and lenders & agents on resources. Public Works The City of Central Point Public Works Department is responsible for streets, water, sewer, stormwater, parks, and public facilities. Much of their work is associated with the reduction of hazards to the community and the implementation of resilience measures. The Public Works Department maintains all urban storm water lines, ditches, and other storm management facilities that help control and direct stormwater in the community. This includes administration and enforcement of the Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control standards on all new development, as part of implementation of the NPDES MS4 Phase II General Permit. The City has contracted with Rogue Valley Council of Governments (RVCOG) to collaborate on activities where city monies can be joined with other jurisdictions to leverage more opportunities in meeting stormwater management program objectives. City Administration The City Council of Central Point has the responsibility of developing and adopting the annual city budget. Integrating hazard mitigation goals and projects into the annual budget is key to implementing the plan. The City Council tries to broadly address resilience planning needs while it determines city and departmental priorities and looks for multiple-impact projects wherever possible. They also work with staff to apply for federal and state grant funding to pursue larger projects that are outside of general fund capacity. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 26 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-9 Personnel The following Central Point personnel have assignments related to natural hazard mitigation planning and implementation: Emergency Management: Jackson County Emergency Management Public Information Officer: Josh Abbott & Desiree Badizadgan, Police Department Floodplain Manager: Justin Gindlesperger, Community Development Department Grant writing (for Public Works or emergency management): Dave Jacob, Parks & Parks Department Capital improvement planning: Public Works Capital improvement execution: Public Works Central Point does not have any employees solely designated to Emergency Management or Mitigation. These personnel integrate hazards and resilience planning into their greater work programs to the best of their abilities. However, there is limited capacity to expand upon their capabilities or work loads. Capital Projects Central Point has implemented recommendations from the last NHMP into its capital improvement projects over the last 5 years, including: • Gebhard Stormwater Outfall (2022-2023) -- This project will install a new stormwater outfall, into Bear Creek, and also install new storm drainpipe to Gebhard Road. • Jewett Drive Stormwater and Waterline Improvements (2022-2023) -- This project consists of creek restoration, storm drainage improvements, water distribution system improvements, and associated modifications along North 10th Street and Jewett Drive from the intersection of East Pine Street and North 10th Street to and within Mingus Creek. Capital Resources Central Point maintains several capital resources that have important roles to play in the implementation of the natural hazard mitigation plan, including: • Communication towers at 1228 Plaza Blvd; 250 Peninger Rd, 1510 E. Pine Street; 411 Oak Street; 888 Twin Creeks Crossing • Critical facilities with power generators for use during emergency blackouts (City Hall, Oregon State Police, Fire District #3 Stations) • Critical facilities with fueling storage capabilities for city-owned vehicles (Public Works Operation Center, 235 S. Haskell, Fire District #3 Stations) 7.A.a Packet Pg. 27 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-10 Findings Several important findings from this capability assessment informed the design of the Plan’s mitigation strategy and aided in prioritizing action items. Staffing Limitations and Capacity Central Point staff are assigned hazard mitigation responsibilities as a (small) part of their larger job responsibilities. Limited capacity reduces the breadth of the programming the community can undertake in any year. The city relies upon its relationships with the County and other cities within its region to expand its operations. Reliance upon outside funding streams and local match requirements Central Point operates on a limited budget with a small staff. This leaves few opportunities for using local financial resources to implement hazard mitigation work. They lean heavily upon state and federal grant funds as the primary means for securing mitigation funding. Hazard mitigation grants such as HMGP and BRIC require 10-25% local funding match, as well as extra staff capacity and expertise to navigate the application process and manage the funding. Leveraging Partnerships with Public and Nonprofit Entities Regional planning displayed in the development of the Greater Bear Creek Valley Regional Plan demonstrates the City’s ability to effectively share information, identify priority needs, and work towards solutions. Mitigation Strategy This section of the NHMP addendum addresses 44 CFR 201.6(c)(3(iv), Mitigation Strategy. The City’s mitigation strategy (action items) was developed during the 2020 NHMP planning process and reviewed and updated during the 2023 update. The steering committee assessed the City’s risk, identified potential issues, and developed a mitigation strategy (action items). The City developed actions specific to their community after first reviewing a list of recommended actions developed by the County or recommended by OPDR. Mitigation Successes The City of Central Point has several examples of hazard mitigation including the following projects funded through FEMA Hazard Mitigation Assistance and the Oregon Infrastructure Finance Authority’s Seismic Rehabilitation Grant Program.2 FEMA Funded Mitigation Successes • None identified. Seismic Rehabilitation Grant Program Mitigation Successes • 2020: Crater High School Gymnasium ($2,452,715) 2 The Seismic Rehabilitation Grant Program (SRGP) is a state of Oregon competitive grant program that provides funding for the seismic rehabilitation of critical public buildings, particularly public schools, and emergency services facilities. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 28 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-11 • 2018: Richardson Elementary School ($1,498,275) • 2017: Central Point Fire Station ($717,963) Other Mitigation Successes • Gebhard Stormwater Outfall (2022-2023) -- This project will install a new stormwater outfall, into Bear Creek, and install new storm drainpipe to Gebhard Road. • Jewett Drive Stormwater and Waterline Improvements (2022-2023) -- This project consists of creek restoration, storm drainage improvements, water distribution system improvements, and associated modifications along North 10th Street and Jewett Drive from the intersection of East Pine Street and North 10th Street to and within Mingus Creek. • new Stormwater management plan • new Flood Code Actions Items Table CA-1 Action Items documents the title of each action along with the lead organization, partners, timeline, cost, and potential funding resources. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 29 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-12 Table CA-1 Action Items Action Item # Mitigation Actions Potential Funding Resources Lead Partners Timeline Cost Multi-Hazard 1.1 Encourage public and private property owners and owners of infrastructure, particularly local businesses, through written and online communications to undertake risk assessments for their facilities and implement mitigation measures when necessary.

In addition, this chapter can serve as the factual basis for addressing Oregon Statewide Planning Goal 7 – Areas Subject to Natural Hazards. Assessing natural hazard risk has three phases: • Phase 1: Identify hazards that can impact the jurisdiction. This includes an evaluation of potential hazard impacts – type, location, extent, etc. • Phase 2: Identify important community assets and system vulnerabilities. Example vulnerabilities include people, businesses, homes, roads, historic places, and drinking water sources. • Phase 3: Evaluate the extent to which the identified hazards overlap with, or have an impact on, the important assets identified by the community. The local level rationale for the identified mitigation strategies (action items) is presented herein and within Volume I, Sections 2 and 3. The risk assessment process is graphically depicted in Figure CA-1 below. Ultimately, the goal of hazard mitigation is to reduce the area of risk, where hazards overlap vulnerable systems.

Changes from the County’s HVA were made where appropriate to reflect distinctions in vulnerability and risk from natural hazards unique to Central Point, which are discussed throughout this addendum. Table CA-2 shows the HVA matrix for Central Point, listing each hazard in order of rank from high to low. For local governments, conducting the hazard analysis is a useful step in planning for hazard mitigation, response, and recovery. The method provides the jurisdiction with a sense of hazard priorities but does not predict the occurrence of a particular hazard. One catastrophic hazard (Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake) and four chronic hazards (emerging infectious disease, extreme heat, flood, and wildfire) rank as the top hazard threats to the City (Top Tier). Air quality, winter storm, and windstorm comprise the next highest ranked hazards (Middle Tier), while drought, crustal earthquake, landslide, and volcano comprise the lowest ranked hazards (Bottom Tier). Table CA-2 Hazard Analysis Matrix Source: Central Point NHMP Steering Committee, 2023. Community Characteristics Table CA-3 and the following section provide information on City specific demographics and characteristics. For additional information on the characteristics of Central Point, in terms of geography, environment, population, demographics, employment, and economics, as well as housing and transportation, see Volume III, Appendix C. Many of these community characteristics can affect how natural hazards impact communities and how communities choose to plan for natural hazard mitigation. Considering the City specific assets during the planning process can assist in identifying appropriate measures for natural hazard mitigation. Central Point is in Jackson County in southwestern Oregon. Located in the central region of the county, Central Point shares its southern border with Medford and is part of the Medford metropolitan area. The City and most of Jackson County are within the Rogue watershed.

The town is at the northeastern edge of the Siskiyou Mountains at approximately 1,272 feet above sea level. Because of its location, Central Point has a climate somewhat intermediate to central California and northern Oregon. The average daily high temperature in the city is 46-degrees Fahrenheit (F) in the winter and 91-degrees Fahrenheit (F) in the summer. Central Point averages only 28 inches of rain per year due to being inland from the coast and in the rain shadow of the nearby mountains. Most of that rain, 24 inches, occurs between October-May. Population and Income The City has grown steadily since the establishment of a post office there under the name of Central Point in 1872. It now has a population of 19,702 people, over an area of 3.90 square miles (3,100 acres). Between 2016 and 2023, the City grew by 2,117 people (12%) and median household income increased by about 33% (see Table CA-3 below). According to the State’s official coordinated population forecast, between 2021 and 2040 the City’s population is forecasted to increase by 19%. Most of the population is White/Caucasian (90%) and about 16% of the population is Hispanic or Latino. The poverty rate is 10% (16% for children), 7% do not have health insurance, and 51% of renters pay more than 30% of their household income on rent (30% for owners). The City has a well-educated population, with 87% of residents with high school degrees or higher, and 19% with bachelor's degrees or higher. Approximately 11% of the population lives with a disability. Almost half the population (48%) are either below 18 (30%) or over 65 (18%) years of age. About 14% of the population are 65 or older and living alone, while 11% are single parents. Transportation, Housing, and Infrastructure In the City of Central Point, transportation has played a major role in shaping the community. The City has the advantage of being located directly on Interstate 5 (I-5), Highway 99 (U.S. Route 99), and the Central Oregon and Pacific Railroad, and is adjacent to the Rogue Valley International Airport. Immediately to the south of Central Point is the City of Medford, which is the seat of Jackson County and the largest city in Southern Oregon. This provides Central Point residents with easy access to major shopping centers, employment, and governmental activities. Today, the City of Central Point includes a diversity of land uses but is zoned primarily residential (48%). Eight percent (8%) of land is zoned commercial; 10% is industrial. The City of Central Point expanded its Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) in 2022 to provide land for housing, non-industrial employment, parks, and open space. This UGB expansion added 305 acres for residential uses, 54 acres for park land, and 35 acres for non-industrial employment.

Seventy-two percent (72%) of homeowners own 2 or more vehicles; 53% of renters also have two or more cars. The existing transportation system is complemented by the established Rogue Valley Transportation District (RVTD) and the transit stops along line #40 within Central Point. The Bear Creek Greenway, an 18-mile paved, multi-use trail, connects Phoenix, Medford, and Central Point. The City purchases water from Medford Water Commission and redistributes it to the residents. The City has three water reservoirs with a total of 5.5 million gallons of storage capacity for emergency and firefighting needs. The water distribution system for the City of Central Point is comprised of 546,609 feet of water mains, 6,789 service connections, 947 fire hydrants and 2,573 valves, etc. Parts of the system have been in place since the early 1900s. Economy A diverse range of businesses have located in Central Point. Central Point’s proximity to Medford and Interstate 5 gives it market access that is more favorable than usual for a rural town. Central Point has a high population growth rate and is expected to grow to 23,500 people by 2040. This means that Central Point will match the City of Ashland’s population and capture almost 7% of the new jobs in the region over the next 20 years. The gains will be concentrated in service, health care, construction, professional, and the business industries. Central Point’s target industries include specialty foods, trucking and warehousing, and retail.3 About 55% of the resident population 16 and over is in the labor force (10,483 people) and are employed in a variety of occupations including professional and related (16%), management, business, and financial (14%), office and administrative (16%), food preparation and serving (8%), and sales and related (11%) occupations. The City adopted an Urban Revitalization Plan for the Downtown and East Pine Street Corridor in 2011. Its projects are anticipated to take 25 years to complete and include street improvements, streetscaping, lighting, intersection improvements, parking facilities, undergrounding of utilities, infrastructure improvements, development of a community center, a fire safety project, and an economic development incentive program. 3 City of Central Point Comprehensive Plan, Economic Element, 2019. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 40 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-23 Table CA-3 Community Characteristics Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 2017-2021 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates; Portland State University, Population Research Center, "Annual Population Estimates, Table 4", 2016 and 2021; and"Population Forecasts, Summary Tab", 2022.

More information on Jackson County hazards can be found in Volume 1, Section 2 Risk Assessment and in the Risk Assessment for Region 4, Southwest Oregon, Oregon SNHMP (2020). Air Quality The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for poor air quality is high (which is the same as the County’s Rating) and that their vulnerability to poor air quality is also high (which is the same as the County’s Rating). The City did not assess the air quality hazard in the previous version of their NHMP. Volume I, Section 2 describes the characteristics of air quality hazards, their history, and how they relate to future climate projections (see OCCRI report), as well as the location, extent, and probability of a potential event. Increases in wildfire conditions have shown an increasing potential for air quality hazards. Future Projections: According to the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute “Future Climate Projections, Jackson County,”4 climate change is expected to reduce outdoor air quality. Warmer temperatures may increase ground-level ozone concentrations, while increases in the number and size of wildfires may increase concentrations of smoke and fine particulate matter. Moreover, increases in pollen abundance and the duration of the pollen season may increase aeroallergens. Such poor air quality is expected to exacerbate allergy and asthma conditions and increase the incidence of respiratory and cardiovascular illnesses and death. In Jackson County, the number of smoke wave days is projected to decrease by 20%, but the intensity of smoke on those days is projected to increase by 81%. Increasingly poor outdoor air quality will have exponentially high impacts upon those living in older homes, manufactured housing, RVs, and campgrounds, or the unhoused. The need to install new or upgraded air conditioning systems or HVAC filtration systems will impact the cost of housing. Additional information on poor air quality can be found in Volume I, Section 2. Drought The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for drought is high (which is the same as the County’s rating) and that their vulnerability to drought is low (which is the lower than the County’s rating). These ratings have not changed since the previous version of the NHMP. Volume I, Section 2 describes the characteristics of drought hazards, history, how they relate to future climate projections (see OCCRI report), as well as the location, extent, and probability of a 4 Oregon Climate Change Research Institute, Future Climate Projections, Jackson County, Oregon.

Due to the climate of Jackson County, past and present weather conditions have shown an increasing potential for drought. The City of Central Point purchases water from the Medford Water Commission. Water supply for Central Point, and other Medford Water Commission customers, is not highly vulnerable and rationing due to drought has not been implemented. For more information on the future of Central Point’s water supply visit their website. Future Projections: According to the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute “Future Climate Projections, Jackson County,”5 drought, as represented by low summer soil moisture, low spring snowpack, low summer runoff, and low summer precipitation, is projected to become more frequent in Jackson County by the 2050s. Increasingly frequent droughts will have economic and social impacts upon those who depend upon predictable growing periods (ranches, farms, vineyards, gardeners) as well as upon the price and availability of fresh vegetables. It may also stress local jurisdiction’s ability to provide water for irrigation or commercial and household use. Please review Volume I, Section 2 for additional information on this hazard. Earthquake (Cascadia) The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for a Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) earthquake is moderate (which is the same as the County’s rating) and that their vulnerability to a CSZ earthquake is high (which is the same as the County’s rating). The City decreased its probability for this hazard from high to moderate. Volume I, Section 2 describes the characteristics of earthquake hazards and their history, as well as the location, extent, and probability of a potential event. Generally, an event that affects the County is likely to affect Central Point as well. The causes and characteristics of an earthquake event are appropriately described within Volume I, Section 2, as well as are the location and extent of potential hazards. Previous occurrences are well documented within Volume I, Section 2. The community impacts described for the County would generally be the same for Central Point.

The local faults, the county’s proximity to the Cascadia Subduction Zone, potential slope instability, and the prevalence of certain soils subject to liquefaction and amplification combine to give the county a high-risk profile. Due to the expected pattern of damage resulting from a CSZ event, the Oregon Resilience Plan divides the State into four distinct zones and places Jackson County predominately within the “Valley Zone” (Valley Zone, from the summit of the Coast Range to the summit of the Cascades). Within the Southwest Oregon region, damage and shaking is expected to be strong and widespread - an event will be disruptive to daily life and commerce and the main priority is expected to be restoring services to business and residents. As noted in the community profile, approximately 38% of residential buildings in Central Point were built prior to 1990. Prior to the seismic standards, structures are likely inadequate to withstand the impacts of an earthquake. Information on specific public buildings’ (schools and public safety) estimated seismic resistance, determined by DOGAMI in 2007, is shown in Table CA-5; each “X” represents one building within that ranking category. Of the facilities evaluated by DOGAMI using a Rapid Visual Survey (RVS), one building has a very high (100% chance) 7.A.a Packet Pg. 48 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-31 collapse potential; however, eight (8) buildings have a high (greater than 10% chance) collapse potential.

In addition to building damages, utility (electric power, water, wastewater, natural gas) and transportation systems (bridges, pipelines) are also likely to experience significant damage. There is a low probability that a major earthquake will result in failure of upstream dams. Utility systems will be significantly damaged, including damaged buildings and damage to utility infrastructure, including water and wastewater treatment plants and equipment at high voltage substations (especially 230 kV or higher which are more vulnerable than lower voltage substations). Buried pipe systems will suffer extensive damage with approximately one break per mile in soft soil areas. There would be a much lower rate of pipe breaks in other areas. Restoration of utility services will require substantial mutual aid from utilities outside of the affected area. Please review Volume I, Section 2 for additional information on this hazard. Earthquake (Crustal) The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for a crustal earthquake is low (which is the same as the County’s rating) and that their vulnerability to crustal earthquake is moderate (which is higher than the County’s rating). These ratings did not change from the previous version of the plan.

Earthquake-induced damages are difficult to predict and depend on the size, type, and location of the earthquake, as well as site-specific building and soil characteristics. Presently, it is not possible to accurately forecast the location or size of earthquakes, but it is possible to predict the behavior of soil at any site. In many major earthquakes, damages have primarily been caused by the behavior of the soil. Vulnerability Assessment Due to insufficient data and resources, Central Point is currently unable to perform a quantitative risk assessment for this hazard; however, an exposure assessment was conducted. Identified community lifelines that are exposed to this hazard are shown in Table CA-4. Note that even if a facility has exposure, it does not mean there is a high risk (vulnerability). No development changes affected the jurisdiction’s overall vulnerability to this hazard. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 51 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-34 Future Projections Future development (residential, commercial, or industrial) within Jackson County will be at risk to earthquake impacts, although this risk can be mitigated by the adoption and enforcement of high development and building standards. Reducing risks to vulnerable populations should be considered during the redevelopment of existing properties. Please review Volume I, Section 2 for additional information on this hazard. Emerging Infectious Disease The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for emerging infectious disease is moderate (which is the same as the County’s rating) and that their vulnerability is high (which is the same as than the County’s rating). This rating was not in the previous version of the NHMP. Emerging infectious diseases are those that have recently appeared in a population or those whose incidence or geographic range is rapidly increasing or threatens to increase. Emerging infections may be caused by biological pathogens (e.g., virus, parasite, fungus, or bacterium) and may be: previously unknown or undetected biological pathogens; biological pathogens that have spread to new geographic areas or populations; previously known biological pathogens whose role in specific diseases was previously undetected; and biological pathogens whose incidence of disease was previously declining but whose incidence of disease has reappeared (re-emerging infectious disease).6 Volume I, Section 2 describes the characteristics of emerging infectious disease and their history, as well as the location, extent, and probability of a potential event within the region. Generally, an event that affects the County is likely to affect the City similarly. Future Projection Vulnerable populations within Jackson County, including children, elderly, those living with disabilities, and unhoused individuals, will be a greater risk to emerging infectious diseases in the future. Please review Volume I, Section 2 for additional information on this hazard. Flood The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for flood is high (which is the same as the County’s rating) and that their vulnerability to flood is moderate (which is the same as the County’s rating). These ratings did not change from the previous version of the City’s NHMP. Volume I, Section 2 describes the characteristics of flood hazards, history, and how they relate to future climate projections (see OCCRI report), as well as the location, extent, and probability of a potential event. Portions of Central Point have mapped FEMA flood zones (Figure CA-8 and 6 Baylor College of Medicine, Emerging Infectious Disease, URL: https://www.bcm.edu/departments/molecular-virology-and- microbiology/emerging-infections-and-biodefense/emerging-infectious-diseases, accessed September 17, 2017. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 52 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-35 Figure CA-9). The City of Central Point has seven (7) streams that are identified as flood sources, according to the Jackson County Flood Insurance Study (2018), including: • Bear Creek, which flows along the eastern part of the City; • Griffin Creek, Jackson Creek, Mingus Creek and Elk Creek, which flow through the City; and • Daisy Creek and Horn Creek, which are tributaries to Griffin Creek and Jackson Creek, respectively.

Flooding along the creeks is most frequent from October through April during periods of heavy rain and/or snowmelt. Because the drainage areas of these creeks are small, flash floods may occur where the extent of flooding is influenced by runoff over a short period of time. Other portions of Central Point, outside of the mapped floodplains, are also subject to flooding from local storm water drainage.

Note: To view detail click this link to access Oregon HazVu. Emigrant Dam is upstream of the City and could impact Central Point with flood waters along Bear Creek in the event of a dam failure. The extent of flooding from Emigrant Dam would depend on several factors at the time of the dam failure, including the water levels in Bear Creek and the amount of water stored in Emigrant Lake behind the dam. Figure CA-10 is an inundation map that shows the areas along Bear Creek that could be impacted by a dam failure. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 54 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-37 Figure CA-10 Emigrant Dam Inundation Zone Source: U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (2010) Vulnerability Assessment Due to insufficient data and resources, Central Point is currently unable to perform a quantitative risk assessment for this hazard, however an exposure assessment was conducted. Identified Community Lifelines that are exposed to this hazard are shown in Table CA-4. Note that even if a facility has exposure, it does not mean there is a high risk (vulnerability). No development changes affected the jurisdiction’s overall vulnerability to this hazard. The City is at risk from three types of flooding: riverine, urban, and dam failure. Riverine flooding occurs when streams overflow their banks and inundate low-lying areas. This is a natural process that adds sediment and nutrients to fertile floodplain areas. It usually results from prolonged 7.A.a Packet Pg. 55 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-38 periods of precipitation over a wide geographic area. Low velocity sheets of water generally flood most areas that are prone to flooding. Urban flooding occurs as land is converted to impervious surfaces and hydrologic systems are changed. Precipitation is collected and transmitted to streams at a much faster rate, causing floodwaters that rise rapidly and peak with violent force. During urban flooding, storm drains can back up and cause localized flooding of streets and basements. Dam failures can also pose a risk to property owners downstream. According to the Bureau of Reclamation, Emigrant Dam has a very low risk of failure. The inundation information presented in Figure CA-10 shows Interstate 5 completely inundated along with a significant portion of the City that parallels Bear Creek, including residential, commercial, industrial, civic and open space land uses. The dam failure inundation area does not show on the City’s FIRM’s because the risk exceeds the one (1) percent annual chance mapped by FEMA. Floods can have a devastating impact on almost every aspect of the community, including private property damage, public infrastructure damage, and economic loss from business interruption. It is important for the City to be aware of flooding impacts and assess its level of risk. The City has been proactive in mitigating flood hazards by purchasing floodplain property. The economic losses due to business closures often total more than the initial property losses that result from flood events. Flood events significantly impact business owners and their employees. Direct damages from flooding are the most common impacts, but indirect damages, such as diminished clientele, can be just as debilitating to a business. No critical or essential facilities are in the floodplain. Currently, there is no financial impact data available of this infrastructure. If major flooding affected all of the main transportation routes in Central Point, traffic flow in and out of the City would be significantly affected, but all avenues would not be cut off. The amount of property in the floodplain is not a large area but damage could be significant as it would affect residential, commercial, and public property. Floodwaters can affect building foundations, seep into basements or cause damage to the interior, exterior, and contents of buildings, dependent upon the velocity and depth of the water and by the presence of floating debris. The City sewer system can overflow during flood events and cause further property damage. For Central Point, urban flooding due to storm water drainage problems have been minor. The storm water systems are designed to handle more common small- to medium-sized runoff events and allow minor street flooding to carry off stormwater that exceeds the system capacity. The Jackson County Flood Insurance Study (January 19, 2018) has a brief history of flooding in Jackson County (Volume I, Section 2). Figure CA-3 shows the location of Critical Facilities throughout Central Point. There are currently three (3) critical facilities in flood risk areas. The Oregon State Patrol barracks and Pacific Power substation on Highway 99 are within the 0.2 percent annual chance floodplain and a portion of the properties are within the one (1) percent annual chance floodplain area. The Mae Richardson Elementary School, which serves as a Red Cross Shelter, is located within the 0.2 percent annual chance floodplain. A portion of the school property also extends into the one (1) percent annual chance floodplain. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 56 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-39 For mitigation planning purposes, it is important to recognize that flood risk for a community is not limited only to areas of mapped floodplains. Other portions of Central Point outside of the mapped floodplains may also be at relatively high risk from over bank flooding from streams too small to be mapped by FEMA or from local storm water drainage. Future Projections According to the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute (OCCRI report) “Future Climate Projections, Jackson County,”7 winter flood risk at mid-elevations in Jackson County, where temperatures are near freezing during winter and precipitation is a mix of rain and snow, is projected to increase as winter temperatures increase. The temperature increase will lead to an increase in the percentage of precipitation falling as rain rather than snow. The projected increases in total precipitation, and in rain relative to snow, likely will increase flood magnitudes in the region. Vulnerable populations adjacent to floodways (including the unhoused, manufactured home communities, and campground occupants) will be more at risk as the winter flood risk increases. National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) FEMA updated the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) and Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) in 2018 (effective January 19, 2018). The City complies with the NFIP through enforcement of their flood damage prevention ordinance and their floodplain management program. The City participates in FEMA’s Community Rating System, and maintains a rating of 6. The Community Repetitive Loss record for Central Point identifies one (1) Repetitive Loss Properties 8 (a 2-4-family residence) and zero (0) Severe Repetitive Loss Properties.9 Table CA-6 gives details for these properties. Figure CA-11 gives the general location of this property. For details on the repetitive loss properties see Volume I, Section 2.

The NFIP Insurance Report shows 198 flood insurance policies active in Central Point, 114 of which are A-zone. The total coverage of these policies is $53,432,000. There have been 30 claims since 1978, paying out $149,792.10 7 Oregon Climate Change Research Institute, Future Climate Projections, Jackson County, Oregon.

Please review Volume I, Section 2 for additional information on this hazard. Landslide The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for landslide is low (which is the lower than the County’s rating) and that their vulnerability to landslide is low (which is the same as the County’s rating). These ratings have remained the same since the previous version of the NHMP. Volume I, Section 2 describes the characteristics of landslide hazards, their history within Jackson County, and how they relate to future climate projections (see OCCRI report), as well as the location, extent, and probability of a potential event within the region. Landslide susceptibility exposure for Central Point is shown in Figure CA-12 and Figure CA-13. Central Point demonstrates a mix of low and moderate susceptibility to landslide exposure, with corridors of moderate susceptibility concentrated around the stream banks within the City. The topography of Central Point is predominantly flat with minimal slopes. The potential for landslide in Central Point is almost negligible except for very small areas immediately adjacent to stream channels that are deeply incised. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 58 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-41 Figure CA-12 Landslide Susceptibility Exposure (Community Lifelines) Source: Oregon Partnership for Disaster Resilience.

Vulnerability Assessment Due to insufficient data and resources, Central Point is currently unable to perform a quantitative risk assessment for this hazard, however an exposure assessment was conducted. Identified community lifelines that are exposed to this hazard are shown in Table CA-4. Note that even if an area has a high percentage of land in a high or very high landslide exposure susceptibility zone, this does not mean there is a high risk (vulnerability), because risk is the intersection of a hazard and assets. No development changes affected the jurisdiction’s overall vulnerability to this hazard. Potential landslide-related impacts are adequately described within Volume I, Section 2 and include infrastructural damages, economic impacts (due to isolation and/or arterial road closures), property damages, and obstruction to evacuation routes. Rain-induced landslides and debris flows can potentially occur during any winter in Jackson County and thoroughfares beyond City limits are susceptible to obstruction as well. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 60 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-43 The most common type of landslides in Jackson County are slides caused by erosion. Slides move in contact with the underlying surface, are generally slow moving and can be deep. Rainfall- initiated landslides tend to be smaller; while earthquake induced landslides may be quite large. All soil types can be affected by natural landslide triggering conditions. Central Point’s vulnerability to landslides is limited to a few stream banks that are deeply incised. Possible landslides in these locations would be accurately described as bank failures, which would be very localized and not occur along the length of a stream channel. The threat of loss to life or property and damage to structures, including critical facilities, is minimal. The City’s flood protection requirements establish setbacks along the stream corridors and prevent the location of structures within the areas at risk of bank failure. Future Projections Landslides are often triggered by rainfall when the soil becomes saturated. As a surrogate measure of landslide risk, the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute (OCCRI report) report presents a threshold based on recent precipitation (cumulative precipitation over the previous 3 days) and antecedent precipitation (cumulative precipitation on the 15 days prior to the previous 3 days). By the 2050s under the higher emissions scenario, the average number of days per year in Jackson County on which the landslide risk threshold is exceeded is projected to remain about the same, with an increase of 0.2 days. However, landslide risk depends on multiple factors, and this metric, which is based on precipitation, does not reflect all aspects of the hazard. Additional triggers, such as earthquakes, wildfires, or development, can increase risks of landslides. Future development along slopes or adjacent to riverbanks will be a greater risk of impact from this hazard. Please review Volume I, Section 2 for additional information on this hazard. Severe Weather Severe weather can account for a variety of intense and potentially damaging weather events. These events include windstorms and winter storms. The following section describes the unique probability and vulnerability of each identified weather hazard. Other more abrupt or irregular events such as hail are also described in this section. Extreme Heat Event The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for extreme heat event is high (which is the same as the County’s Rating) and that their vulnerability to an extreme heat event is moderate (which is the same as the County’s Rating). The City did not assess the extreme heat event hazard in the previous version of their NHMP. Jackson County’s NHMP Volume I, Section 2, adequately describes the causes and characteristics of extreme heat, as well as the history, location, extent, and probability of a potential event and how it relates to future climate projections (see OCCRI report). Generally, an event that affects the County is likely to affect the City as well. A severe heat episode or "heat wave" occurs about every two to three years, and typically lasts two to three days but can last as many as five days. A severe heat episode can be defined as consecutive days of temperatures in the high 90s and 7.A.a Packet Pg. 61 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-44 above 100. Severe heat hazard in Southern Oregon can be described as the average number of days with temperatures greater than or equal to 90-degrees Fahrenheit.11 Extreme heat events can and have occurred in the city. While they typically do not cause loss of life, they are becoming more frequent and have the potential to impact economic activity as well as quality of life and have caused threat to life in some cases. Future Projections According to the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute (OCCRI report) “Future Climate Projections, Jackson County,”12 average temperature is expected to continue increasing during the twenty-first century if global emissions of greenhouse gases continue. The number, duration, and intensity of extreme heat events will increase as temperatures continue to warm. In Jackson County, the number of extremely hot days (days on which the temperature is 90°F or higher) and the temperature on the hottest day of the year are projected to increase by the 2020s and 2050s. The number of days per year with temperatures 90°F or higher is projected to increase by an average of 28 days (range 12–38 days) by the 2050s, relative to the 1971–2000 historical baselines. The temperature on the hottest day of the year is projected to increase by an average of about 7°F (range 3–8°F) by the 2050s. Higher temperatures and longer/more extreme heat events will have negative impacts upon vulnerable populations such as those over 65+, children, those living in older or temporary housing, and field workers. See the Risk Assessment (Volume I, Section 2) for additional information on this hazard. Windstorm The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for windstorms is high (which is the same as the County’s rating) and that their vulnerability to windstorms is moderate (which is the same as the County’s rating). The probability rating has remained the same since the previous version of the plan. The vulnerability rating has been raised from low to moderate. Volume I, Section 2 describes the characteristics of windstorm hazards, history, and how they relate to future climate projections (see OCCRI report), as well as the location, extent, and probability of a potential event within the region. Because windstorms typically occur during winter months, they are sometimes accompanied by ice, freezing rain, flooding, and very rarely, snow. Other severe weather events that may accompany windstorms, including thunderstorms, hail, lightning strikes, and tornadoes are generally negligible for Central Point. Volume I, Section 2 describes the impacts caused by windstorms, including power outages, downed trees, heavy precipitation, building damages, and storm-related debris. Additionally, transportation and economic disruptions result as well. Microbursts also occur in Central Point creating strong winds, particularly from the northeast. Damage from high winds generally has resulted in downed utility lines and trees. Electrical power can be out anywhere from a few hours to several days. Outdoor signs have also suffered 11 DLCD.

If the high winds are accompanied by rain (which they often are), blowing leaves and debris clog drainage-ways, which in turn causes localized urban flooding. Central Point’s location within the central part of the Rogue Valley, away from heavily forested areas, and the lack of direct impacts from past wind events, limits the impact of windstorms. Future Projections Limited research suggests little if any change in the frequency and intensity of windstorms in the Northwest as a result of climate change. Those impacted by windstorms at present, including older residential or commercial developments with above-ground utilities, poor insulation or older construction, heavy tree canopies, or poor storm drainage, will continue to be impacted by windstorms in the future. Please review Volume I, Section 2 for additional information on this hazard. Winter Storm (Snow/Ice) The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for winter storm is high (which is the same as the County’s rating) and that their vulnerability to winter storm is moderate (which is the same as the County’s rating). The probability rating has remained the same since the previous version of the plan. The vulnerability rating has been lowered in this version of the plan. Volume I, Section 2 describes the characteristics of winter storm hazards, history, and how they relate to future climate projections (see OCCRI report), as well as the location, extent, and probability of a potential event within the region. Severe winter storms can consist of rain, freezing rain, ice, snow, cold temperatures, and wind. They originate from troughs of low pressure offshore that ride along the jet stream during fall, winter, and early spring months. Severe winter storms affecting the City typically originate in the Gulf of Alaska or in the central Pacific Ocean. These storms are most common from November through March. Major winter storms can and have occurred in the Central Point area and while they typically do not cause significant damage, they are frequent and have the potential to impact economic activity. The most likely impacts to Central Point from winter storms are road closures limiting access to/from some areas, especially roads to higher elevations, power outages from downed transmission lines, and damages to structures from tree falls. The damaging effects of winter storms extend beyond the limits of Central Point and have impacts for the entire region. The closure or delays along the I-5 corridor can adversely impact the economy locally, regionally, and statewide. Future Projections According to the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute (OCCRI report) “Future Climate Projections, Jackson County,”13 cold extremes will become less frequent and intense as the climate warms. In Jackson County, the number of cold days (maximum temperature 32°F or lower) per year is projected to decrease by an average of 3 days (range -2– -5 days) by the 2050s, relative to the 1971–2000 historical baselines, under the higher emissions scenario. The temperature on the coldest night of the year is projected to increase by an average of 6°F (range 13 Oregon Climate Change Research Institute, Future Climate Projections, Jackson County, Oregon.

The intensity of extreme precipitation is expected to increase as the atmosphere warms and holds more water vapor. In Jackson County, the number of days per year with at least 0.75 inches of precipitation is not projected to change substantially. However, by the 2050s, the amount of precipitation on the wettest day and wettest consecutive five days per year is projected to increase by an average of 15% (range -3–32%) and 11% (range -3–34%), respectively. If these precipitation events occur in the winter, heavier winter storms with larger impacts upon transportation routes, vulnerable populations, and economic activity can be expected. Please review Volume I, Section 2 for additional information on this hazard. Volcanic Event The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for a volcanic event is low (which is the same as the County’s rating) and that their vulnerability to a volcanic event is low (which is the same as the County’s rating). These ratings did not change since the previous NHMP. Volume I, Section 2 describes the characteristics of volcanic hazards and their history, as well as the location, extent, and probability of a potential event within the region. Generally, an event that affects the County is likely to affect Central Point as well. Central Point is very unlikely to experience anything more than volcanic ash during a volcanic event. Though unlikely, the impacts could be significant to the local water supply, create health problems, and collapse roofs of vulnerable structures. There is currently no analysis to determine the numbers and types of buildings, including critical facilities, in the City that would be vulnerable to a volcanic eruption. Future Projections Although the science of volcano predictions is improving, it remains challenging to predict a potential volcanic event. Ash fall, which will be the greatest impact, will impact the entire County. Impacts will be felt hardest by property managers (ranches, farmers, etc.) and by those relying upon clean surface water (for drinking water production and irrigation). Please review Volume I, Section 2 for additional information on this hazard. Wildfire The steering committee determined that the City’s probability for wildfire is high (which is the same as the County’s rating) and that their vulnerability to wildfire is moderate (which is lower than the County’s rating). These ratings did not change since the previous NHMP. Volume I, Section 2 describes the characteristics of wildfire hazards, history, and how they relate to future climate projections (see OCCRI report), as well as the location, extent, and probability of a potential event within the region. The location and extent of a potential wildfire vary depending on fuel, topography, and weather conditions. Weather and urbanization conditions are primarily at cause for the hazard level. Wildfires near Central Point are common. Figure CA-13 and Figure CA-14 show burn probability in Central Point for community lifelines and historic buildings. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 64 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-47 Figure CA-14 Burn Probability (Community Lifelines) Source: Oregon Partnership for Disaster Resilience. USFS Pacific Northwest Region Wildfire Risk Assessment (PNRA) Note: To view detail click this link to access Oregon Explorer’s CWPP Planning Tool. The potential community impacts and vulnerabilities described in Volume I, Section 2 are generally accurate for the City as well. The Rogue Valley Integrated Fire Protection Plan (RVIFP, updated 2017) assesses wildfire risk, maps wildland urban interface areas, and includes actions to mitigate wildfire risk. The City is included in the RVIFP and will update the City’s wildfire risk assessment if the fire plan presents better data during future updates (an action item is included within Volume I, Section 4 to participate in updates to the integrated fire plan and to continue to maintain and update their RVIFP). Central Point is within an area of high wildfire prone urban landscape. The City hereby incorporates the RVIFP into this addendum by reference to provide greater detail to sensitivity and exposure to the wildfire hazard. The City participates in Firewise and has a defensible space (fuel break) ordinance per the Central Point Code. Property can be damaged or destroyed with one fire as structures, vegetation, and other flammables easily merge to become unpredictable and hard to manage. Other factors that affect ability to effectively respond to a wildfire include access to the location and to water, response time from the fire station, availability of personnel and equipment, and weather (e.g., heat, low humidity, high winds, and drought). 7.A.a Packet Pg. 65 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-48 Figure CA-15 Burn Probability (Historic Structures) Source: Oregon Partnership for Disaster Resilience. USFS Pacific Northwest Region Wildfire Risk Assessment (PNRA) Note: To view detail click this link to access Oregon Explorer’s CWPP Planning Tool. Vulnerability Assessment Due to insufficient data and resources, Central Point is currently unable to perform a complete quantitative risk assessment, or exposure analysis, for this hazard. Identified community lifelines that are exposed to this hazard are shown in Figure CA-3. Note that even if a facility has exposure, it does not mean there is a high risk (vulnerability). Ignition sources are generally concentrated along travel corridors and at the edges of urban areas. Debris-burning, equipment use, and even arson contribute to wildlife ignition sources. Central Point is bounded by rural areas on the west and north. There are several travel corridors that connect the City to these areas, and north-south stream corridors, including the Bear Creek Greenway (the origin of the 2018 Peninger Fire) that connect the City to the wildland-urban interface and sources of wildland fires.14 14 City of Central Point Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan, 2020. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 66 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-49 Metro areas within ¼-mile of wildlands are vulnerable to risks of wildfires. Areas of Central Point within ¼-mile of wildlands include the Bear Creek Greenway and the “metro edge”. There are approximately 1,170 residences within ¼-mile of the Bear Creek Greenway, 1,970 residences within ¼-mile of the “metro edge” along the north and west sides of the City. There are several critical facilities within the wildfire risk area, including the new Scenic Fire Station along Scenic Avenue. The expected increase in population necessitated the expansion of the City’s urban growth boundary in 2022, and ultimately, will result in the extension of urban-type development and densities into current rural areas. Areas proposed for growth, to the west and north of the current City boundaries are also areas currently within a certain level of risk for wildfires. While densities will increase in these areas, services, such as access routes, emergency response from the new fire station, and water supplies, will increase commensurately. It is anticipated that the level of risk to wildfires will stay the same in these areas. Future Projections According to the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute “Future Climate Projections, Jackson County,”15 wildfire frequency, intensity, and area burned are projected to continue increasing in the Northwest. Wildfire risk, expressed as the average number of days per year on which fire danger is very high, is projected to increase in Jackson County by 13 days (range -6– 29) by the 2050s, relative to the historical baseline (1971–2000), under the higher emissions scenario. Similarly, the average number of days per year on which vapor pressure deficit is extreme is projected to increase by 29 days (range 12–42) by the 2050s. Communities at risk to wildfire include those within the urban wildfire interface or along river or creek corridors, like Bear Creek, where fire can travel quickly. Communities will need to address growing wildfire risks if populations are not restricted from expanding further into higher risk areas. 15 Oregon Climate Change Research Institute, Future Climate Projections, Jackson County, Oregon.

In addition, a survey was distributed that included responses from 266 residents of Central Point (Volume II, Appendix F). To provide the public information regarding the draft NHMP addendum, and provide an opportunity for comment, an announcement (see below) was provided from November 16 and through the FEMA review period on the City’s website. The plan was also posted and announced on the County’s website. There were XX [to be updated following public comment period] comments provided. Additional opportunities for stakeholders and the public to be involved in the planning process are addressed in Volume II, Appendix B. The Central Point NHMP Steering Committee held three public meetings during the development of the plan. The third meeting was co-hosted by the Central Point Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC), which is a volunteer board of Central Point residents that provides feedback and opinions on planning matters. It was open to the public and provided a forum to explain the NHMP planning process and encourage input from the general public and active community stakeholders on draft mitigation actions. The CAC includes representatives from City Council as well as residents, business owners, property owners, and non-profit organizations concerned with the environment, housing, etc. This meeting was advertised in the City’s newsletter, on their website, and via email to stakeholders. Stakeholder participation was encouraged through one-on-one briefings and interviews. Stakeholder agencies not directly represented on the CAC or NHMP Steering Committee were also included in all meeting follow-ups to provide opportunities to provide comments on draft goals, hazard assessments, mitigation actions, and plan products. 7.A.a Packet Pg. 68 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-51 Website Posting 7.A.a Packet Pg. 69 At t a c h m e n t : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ( 1 8 0 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t N a t u r a l H a z a r d M i t i g a t i o n P l a n ) | Jackson County NHMP 2024: Central Point Addendum Page | CA-52 Central Point Steering Committee Central Point convened a Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan Steering Committee, which included representatives from City departments associated with preventive measures (Building Official), property protection (Floodplain Manager), natural resource protection (Parks & Recreation Director, Environmental Services), emergency services (Police Department and Fire District #3), structural flood control (Public Works Director), and public information (City Council). The Central Point Steering Committee also sent two representatives to the Jackson County NHMP Steering Committee (Planner/Floodplain Manager and Fire District #3). Steering committee members possessed familiarity with Central Point’s community and how it is affected by natural hazard events. The steering committee guided the Central Point update process through several steps including hazard assessment, problem identification, goal confirmation and prioritization, action item review and development, and information sharing, to update the NHMP and to make the NHMP as comprehensive as possible. Based on their involvement in hazard mitigation projects or planning, and/or their interest as a neighboring jurisdiction, representatives from the following agencies were invited to participate on the NHMP update. Some of these participated at Steering Committee meetings while others reviewed drafts of the plan and provided feedback by email.

The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing on February 6, 2024, received public testimony and forwarded a recommendation to City Council to approve the proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment (“Amendment”). Testimony received expressed concern about the conversion of open space to housing, traffic impacts and general concerns about development impacts on the City overall. The proposed Amendments to the General Land Use Plan (GLUP) Map and Overlay Map in the Land Use Element, include the following: 1. Taylor Road at North Haskell Street (37S 2W 03DC, Tax Lots 3402, 3603 (0.73 acres) and 37S 2W 10AB, Tax Lot 1300 (0.18 acres). The proposed amendment would change the existing Civic land use designation to High Density Residential (HRes). A local land developer has acquired the property and has prepared a preliminary plan to develop single-story, cottage-style multifamily units to support affordable age-in-place housing. The proposed map amendment is necessary to apply a zoning designation that would permit housing construction. Per the Land Use Element, the Medium Mix Residential (MMR) or High Mix Residential (HMR) zone could be applied. Staff is recommending MMR in the concurrent Minor Zone Map Amendment application (ZC-23001). 2. 1777 East Pine Street (37S 2W 03D, Tax Lot 100 (21.13 acres). The proposed amendment would change the Overlay Map extending the Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Overlay to include the property; and, change the existing Employment Commercial land use designation on the GLUP Map to HRes on a portion of the site. The purpose of the proposed changes is to allow a combination of affordable and market rate high density housing while preserving opportunities for commercial use in stand- alone and/or mixed-use configurations. The property is owned by the Housing Authority of Jackson County. They approached 7.B Packet Pg. 78 the City in October 2021 prior to purchasing the site to evaluate options that would allow construction of affordable housing on roughly 5.5 acres of the property. Their stated intent was to sell the remaining portion of the site for market rate housing (7.4 acres) and commercial use (8.2 acres). The current land use and zoning designations do not allow housing. By extending the TOD Overlay and amending the land use and zoning map, the property owner has the opportunity to accomplish their objectives and the City is able to require master planning that will support a livable, mixed-use environment. Since discussions began with the Housing Authority, the State passed House Bill 2984, which allows development of qualified affordable housing in commercial zones without requiring a zone change or conditional use permit. This would allow the Housing Authority to construct qualified affordable housing on the site without consideration of minimum/maximum density or other clear and objective standards that would otherwise apply in an area planned and zoned for residential use. During the public hearing, the Planning Commission considered two scenarios: • Scenario 1 - Maximize preservation of Employment Commercial lands thereby granting maximum flexibility to the Housing Authority to develop affordable housing on the City’s commercial lands. • Scenario 2 – Designate the site area contemplated for affordable and market rate housing as HRes to support residential zoning that would establish clear and objective criteria for future residential land development. The Planning Commission recommended Scenario 2 be approved because it provides a clear process and criteria for housing development while balancing the need for retaining commercial use opportunities. At the February 22, 2024 City Council meeting, staff will present the existing land use and proposed amendments for a second duly noticed public hearing and 1st reading of the ordinance. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: There are no costs aside from in-kind contributions associated with the proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment. LEGAL ANALYSIS: The proposed Amendment applies existing policies in the Land Use Element to lands within the City Limits. To approve the Amendment, the City Council must find that the change is consistent with CPMC 17.96, Comprehensive Plan and Urban Growth Boundary Amendments. This includes demonstrated compliance with the Statewide Planning Goals, applicable policies of the Central Point Comprehensive Plan and the State Transportation Planning Rule (OAR 660-012- 0060). Staff has prepared the application and provided written Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law (Attachment 2). These findings of fact demonstrate that the proposed Amendment provides needed housing in balance with employment needs and is consistent with the approval criteria summarized above. Of note, a Traffic Impact Analysis was conducted and found that the proposed change would decrease traffic impacts and consequently no significant impact is found to the City’s transportation system. COUNCIL GOALS/STRATEGIC PLAN ANALYSIS: Strategic Priority: Community Investment, Goal 6 – Meet the housing needs of Central Point 7.B Packet Pg. 79 residents and businesses. . Strategy 1 – Rely on the findings, policies and implementation of the City’s Comprehensive Plan Population, Housing and Economic Elements. Strategy 2 – Support and Capitalize on opportunities to collaborate on projects with agencies who specialize in providing affordable housing. Strategy 3 – Pursue grant and/or Urban Renewal assistance in making housing affordable and accessible to residents. Comment: The proposed Amendment implements the City’s Housing and Economic Elements by providing land use designations supportive of both residential and employment needs. The City recognizes it has a housing shortage of approximately 2,800 housing units and affordability for all segments of the population is challenging. The proposed Amendment leverages partnerships with local land developers who have prepared preliminary plans to provide affordable, accessible housing in Central Point in the near-term. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Open the public hearing to receive testimony on the proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment and: 1) Forward the Ordinance to a 2nd Reading with or without changes; or 2) Deny the Minor Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment. RECOMMENDED MOTION: I move to forward the Ordinance Amending the Central Point Comprehensive Plan Map on properties located at the corner of Taylor Road and North Haskell Street (0.9 acres) and 1777 East Pine Street (12.9 acres) to increase housing production to a second reading.

At this time, the City is presenting a Minor Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment (CPA-23001) and a Minor Zoning Map Amendment (ZC- 23001) to support production of needed housing at two (2) locations in the City. In accordance with CPMC 17.05.100, CPMC 17.96.300 and CPMC 17.10.300(B), the proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan Map and Zone Map Amendments are being processed using Type III procedures set forth in CPMC 17.05.400.

Both properties are currently planned and zoned for uses that prohibit housing. As provided below, the City is proposing to amend the land use and zoning as necessary to remove barriers to housing production. 2.1 Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment The City of Central Point Comprehensive Plan Land Use Element maps and manages the City’s land use classifications. The General Land Use Plan (GLUP) Map shows the distribution land use designations throughout the city. The Land Use Overlay Map illustrates the location of the City’s five overlay districts. The proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment includes two (2) changes to the Central Point GLUP (Figures 1-5) and one amendment to the Land Use Overlay Map (Figure 6-7) as described below: • GLUP Map Amendment #1 - Taylor Road Infill/Housing Production (37S 2W 03DC, Tax Lot 3402, 3603). Change the General Land Use Plan (GLUP) designation from Civic to High Density Residential (HRes) (Figures 1 and 2). The subject properties are located near the intersection of Taylor Road and North Haskell Street. A local land developer has acquired the property and would like to develop cottage style multifamily units to support affordable, age-in-place housing. • GLUP Map Amendment #2 – 1777 East Pine Street (37S 2W 02D, Tax Lot 100). The proposal would re-designate a portion of the site from Employment Commercial to High Density Residential. The subject property is owned by the Housing Authority of Jackson County. During a Pre-Application Conference in 2022, the HAJC presented a preliminary plan to subdivide the property to provide a combination of affordable and market rate high density housing on approximately 12.9 acres and retain opportunities for commercial development on the 8.4 remaining acres. The current land use designations are not supportive of zoning the site for residential and commercial mixed-use. However recent legislative changes would allow qualified affordable housing to be built on commercial land contrary to limitations imposed by the current zoning. Given the City’s limited commercial land supply, City staff advised the HAJC in the Pre-Application Conference and written report changes to the land use and zoning on this property would be necessary to support housing production and maintain the City’s limited commercial land supply. The proposed change to the GLUP map would allow the City to plan for housing in combination with commercial uses on the site and either 1) establish land use designations and zoning that provide clear and objective criteria for future development; or, 2) provide maximum flexibility to the HAJC to develop qualified affordable housing without clear and objective standards for minimum/maximum density, design, etc.. Two (2) scenarios have been evaluated based on these options and are presented for consideration by the Planning Commission and City Council: 7.B.b Packet Pg. 88 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) o Scenario 1: Change 7.4 acres from Employment Commercial to High Density Residential to support market rate housing. Pre-Application Conference held on October 25, 2021, HAJC discussed their intent to construction affordable housing on 5.5 acres and to market the remaining acreage for market rate housing and commercial development. Scenario 1 limits the land use amendment to the market rate housing property only, which maintains the commercial land supply until such time the HAJC develops the 5.5 acres with qualified affordable housing in accordance with House Bill 2984. o Scenario 2: Change 12.9 acres from Employment Commercial to High Density Residential to support both the market rate housing on a 7.4 acre portion of the site and the 5.5 acre area envisioned for future affordable housing. The rationale behind including Scenario 2 is to provide greater predictability and regulation of the affordable housing portion with regarding to minimum density standards and design standards. This scenario would eliminate the opportunity to develop a stand-alone commercial use but would allow a mix of commercial and housing. • Land Use Overlay Map Amendment – 1777 East Pine Street (37S 2W 02D, Tax Lot 100). The proposed amendment would extend the Transit Oriented Development Overlay to include this property, which is roughly 22 acres in size. If the property is included in the TOD Overlay, future site development will be subject to design and development standards that emphasize facilitating multi-modal transportation options and livability. This modification is supportive of facilitating the City’s compliance with Climate Friendly and Equitable Communities rules, as this site has been identified as a priority area for Climate Friendly Area (CFA) designation. The CFA has similar characteristics to the TOD Overlay. If approved, the proposed modification will reduce the likelihood that new development at this location will become legally nonconforming following the CFA designation process. At the Planning Commission and City Council meetings, the proposed amendments will be considered at approved with Scenario 1 or Scenario 2 or denied. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 89 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 1 - Existing GLUP Map: Taylor Road 7.B.b Packet Pg. 90 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 2 - Proposed GLUP Map: Taylor Road at North Haskell Street 7.B.b Packet Pg. 91 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 3 - Existing GLUP: 1777 East Pine Street 7.B.b Packet Pg. 92 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 4 - Proposed GLUP: 1777 East Pine Street, Scenario 1 7.B.b Packet Pg. 93 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 5 - Proposed GLUP: 1777 East Pine Street, Scenario 2 7.B.b Packet Pg. 94 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 6 - Proposed TOD Overlay Extension 7.B.b Packet Pg. 95 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) 7.B.b Packet Pg. 96 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) 2.2 Zone Map Amendment. Zoning Districts specify the land use and development regulations that apply to development in the City. The City’s Zoning Map identifies the spatial distribution of the City’s zoning districts based on the land use designations shown on the GLUP Map. There are three changes proposed to the Zoning Map, which are illustrated on Figures 10-16 and described below: • Extend the TOD Overlay to include the HAJC property (37S 2W 02D, Tax Lot 100). This would match the change to the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Overlay Map. • Re-zone the Taylor Road Infill Site (37S 2W 03DC, Tax Lot 3402, 3603) to Medium Mix Residential (MMR). This zoning classification aligns with the High Density Residential Land Use Designation and would support multifamily residential housing production. In this case, the proposal would help increase the supply of affordable housing in the City. • Re-zone a portion of the HAJC property from Employment Commercial to High Mix Residential (HMR) or a combination of HMR and MMR. This change would align with the GLUP Map Amendment Scenario #1 or #2 and support high density housing with established minimum/maximum density ranges and development standards for both affordable and market rate housing projects while preserving opportunities for mixed-use (residential/commercial) development. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 97 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) [Insert Figures 5-8] Figure 7 - Existing Zoning, Taylor Road at North Haskell Street 7.B.b Packet Pg. 98 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 8 - Proposed Zoning, Taylor Road at North Haskell Street 7.B.b Packet Pg. 99 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 9 - Existing Zoning, 1777 East Pine Street 7.B.b Packet Pg. 100 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 10 - Proposed Zoning, Scenario 1 (1777 East Pine Street) 7.B.b Packet Pg. 101 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 11 - Proposed Zoning, Scenario 2 (1777 East Pine Street) 7.B.b Packet Pg. 102 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) 3 Statewide Planning Goals In accordance with CPMC 17.10, Zoning Map and Text Amendments and CPMC 17.96, Comprehensive Plan and Urban Growth Boundary Amendments, the Statewide Planning Goals apply to Comprehensive Plan amendments. The Statewide Planning Goals 1-14 are addressed below for File No. CPA-23001. Goals 15-19 involve coastal lands and areas in the Willamette Valley, which do not apply to the City of Central Point. 3.1 Goal 1 – Citizen Involvement To develop a citizen’s involvement program that insures the opportunity for citizens to be involved in all phases of the planning process. Finding, Goal 1: Finding, Goal 1: The City’s Citizen Involvement Program is set forth in the Comprehensive Plan and CPMC 17.05. This program specifies that a broad spectrum of affected citizens be involved throughout preparation, implementation, monitoring and amendment of plans, including but not limited to a Citizen’s Advisory Committee. Procedures in CPMC 17.05 establish notification and involvement requirements relative to each application type (i.e. Type I, II, III, IV). The City took this matter to the City Council in a public meeting on January 26, 2023 to consider whether the initiate the proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments to support housing. Additionally, the Proposed Amendments have been processed in accordance with Type III procedures, including mailed and posted notices of the public hearings scheduled for the Planning Commission on February 6, 2024 and the City Council on February 22, 2024. Additionally, the City posted notice of the proposed amendments on the DLCD Post Acknowledgement Plan Amendment (PAPA) portal on December 5, 2023 and revised this notice on December 14, 2023. Conclusion, Goal 1: Consistent. 3.2 Goal 2 – Land Use Planning To establish a land use planning process and policy framework as a basis for all decisions and actions related to use of land and to assure an adequate factual basis for such decisions and actions. Finding, Goal 2: The City’s land use planning process and policy framework is provided in the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan and Central Point Municipal Code in Title 17. The proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan Map and Zoning Map Amendment applies existing land use and zoning designations to the properties on Taylor Road and East Pine Street. Approval of the proposed amendments is subject to the criteria for Comprehensive Plan Amendments in CPMC 17.96 and Zoning Amendments in CPMC 17.10. Conclusion, Goal 2: The City has applied its land use planning process and policy framework to the proposed map amendments. 3.3 Goal 3 – Agricultural Lands To preserve and maintain agricultural lands. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 103 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Finding, Goal 3: The proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments are to lands within the city limits do not involve or otherwise affect agricultural lands. Conclusion, Goal 3: Not applicable. 3.4 Goal 4 – Forest Lands To conserve forest lands by maintaining the forest land base and to protect the state’s forest economy by making possible economically efficient forest practices that assure the continuous growing and harvesting of forest tree species as a leading use on forest land consistent with sound management of soil, air, water, and fish and wildlife resources and to provide for recreational opportunities and agriculture. Finding, Goal 4: The proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments are to lands within the city limits do not involve or otherwise affect forest lands. Conclusion, Goal 4: Not applicable. 3.5 Goal 5 – Natural Resources, Scenic and Historic Areas, and Open Spaces To protect natural resources and conserve scenic and historic areas and open spaces. Finding, Goal 5: Pursuant to Goal 5, the City is required to adopt programs and regulations that protect natural resources and conserve scenic, historic and open space resources. Goal 5 resources that must be inventoried include: wetlands, riparian corridors, wildlife habitat, federal wild and scenic rivers, state scenic waterways, groundwater resources, approved Oregon recreational trails, natural areas, wilderness areas, mineral and aggregate resources, energy sources, and cultural areas. Local governments are also encouraged to inventory historic resources, open space and scenic view and sites. The proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments involving 1777 East Pine Street include land that is within the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) and riparian corridor for Bear Creek. At this time, the City is updating its Environmental Element of the Comprehensive Plan including a local wetland and riparian inventory. The lands with identified natural resources will be managed as a function of the land development process consistent with local implementing regulations for natural resources including floodplain, riparian areas and wetlands, as well as state and federal requirements. Conclusion, Goal 5: Consistent. 3.6 Goal 6 – Air, Water and Land Resources Quality To maintain and improve the quality of the air, water and land resources of the state. Finding, Goal 6: Goal 6 requires that all waste and process discharges from existing and future development will not threaten to violate or violate applicable state or federal environmental quality statutes, rules and standards. There is no interpretive rule for Goal 6. The City finds that air, water and land resource quality will be addressed by the City’s land use, transportation and environmental programs that minimize, mitigate or avoid conflicts with Goal 6 associated with land development: In this case, the proposed 7.B.b Packet Pg. 104 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) actions to modify the land use designation, TOD overlay boundary and zoning districts on property located on Taylor Road and East Pine Street will allow for housing development. Future land development proposals will be subject to the City’s land use, transportation and environmental programs that minimize, mitigate or avoid conflicts with Goal 6, including: • Land Use and Transportation Planning. The land use and development regulations that apply to the properties that are the subject of this amendment, will be in the TOD Overlay. The TOD Overlay promotes multi-modal transportation in neighborhoods with mixed-use opportunities and human-scale design. This supports the ability of residents to have needs met within walking distance and thereby reduces vehicle miles traveled, which is associated with air and water pollution. • Stormwater Management. The City of Central Point manages all land development in accordance with the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System Phase II Program. This includes erosion and sediment control, as well as post-construction runoff treatment to protect water quality from pollutants and increased volume associated with increased impervious surface area and land development. The proposed Amendments do not cause land development; however, future land development will be subject to the City’s stormwater management program to protect water quality. • Floodplain Management. The City’s Floodplain Management regulations are set forth in CPMC 8.24 and address risk reduction, as well as higher standards that buffer floodways and preserve riparian corridors. Future land development proposals for the subject properties will be subject to the City’s Floodplain Program, including preservation of open space within the floodway and floodway buffer. • Urban Forestry. Central Point is a Tree City USA and implements regulations (CPMC 12.36, CPMC 17.75, and CPMC 17.67) and programs to increase the urban forest canopy in the City. Trees are shown to promote cleaner air and water (photosynthesis, through fall, evapotranspiration), cooler ambient air temperatures (shade from increased canopy) and increased soil quality (by increasing soil infiltration and beneficial soil organisms). The City will continue its program of requiring street trees, along street frontages and within parking areas development buffers. This will apply to the properties that are the subject of the Minor Comprehensive Plan Map and Zoning Map Amendments at such time they are developed. Conclusion, Goal 6: Consistent. 3.7 Goal 7 – Areas Subject to Natural Hazards To protect people and property from natural hazards. Finding, Goal 7: The proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments have been evaluated for natural hazard impacts, as shown in Figures 12 7.B.b Packet Pg. 105 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) and 13. The Taylor Road property is partially impacted by the low-to-moderate risk floodplain (-shaded flood zone) and is not subject to CPMC 8.24. The property at 1777 East Pine Street is partially impacted by the high risk floodplain along the west property boundary. Future land development proposals on this site will require conformance with CPMC 8.24, Flood Damage Prevention. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 106 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 12 - Environmental Resource Map, Taylor Road at North Haskell Properties 7.B.b Packet Pg. 107 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 13 - Environmental Resource Map, 1777 East Pine Street 7.B.b Packet Pg. 108 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Conclusion, Goal 7: Protection of people and property from flood hazards will be managed consistent with CPMC 8.24 at the time of land development application consistent with Goal 7. 3.8 Goal 8 – Recreational Needs To satisfy the recreational needs of the citizens of the state and visitors and, where appropriate, to provide for the siting of necessary recreational facilities including destination resorts. Finding, Goal 8: The proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments respond to the need for housing and the opportunity to support it. Recreation needs are managed through the City’s Parks Element, which does not identify any needs for Neighborhood or Community Parks on either of the two proposed map amendment areas. Notwithstanding, the proposed amendment to include 1777 East Pine Street in the TOD Overlay will support neighborhood recreation through the master planning process (required for all properties greater than 2 acres) and provision of open space in conjunction with new housing development. The Taylor Road property is already part of the TOD Overlay and is proximate to existing parks and open space lands that were developed as part of the Twin Creeks TOD Master Plan. Conclusion, Goal 8: The proposed map amendments, through the future land development process, are supportive and consistent with the need to provide for the recreational needs of the community. 3.9 Goal 9 – Economic Development To provide adequate opportunities throughout the state for a variety of economic activities vital to the health, welfare, and prosperity of Oregon’s citizens. Finding, Goal 9: The proposed Map Amendments apply land use and zoning designations, including the TOD Overlay, High Density Residential (Hares), Employment Commercial land use designations; and, MMR, HMR and EC zones. These land use designations and corresponding zoning districts provide the dual function of allowing increased housing production while retaining flexibility to provide commercial uses in horizontal and vertical mixed-use configurations based on market demands. The City finds that the proposed amendments are consistent with the need to provide economic opportunities in balance with housing needs. Conclusion, Goal 9: Consistent. 3.10 Goal 10 – Housing To provide for the housing needs of the state. Finding, Goal 10: The City added lands the to the UGB in 2020 to provide land that can support 2,887 needed housing units. Lands within the newly added UGB are currently ineligible for annexation due to requirements to complete environmental and public facility planning, which is likely to conclude later this year. Meanwhile, the City has very limited residential buildable lands available. The proposed Map Amendments recognize that the State has set a housing production goal of 36,000 units per year to combat the state’s housing shortage (Executive Order 23-04) and that the City can contribute to increased housing production by working collaboratively with public and private partners who are willing and able to increase the City’s housing supply. In this case, the City has met with 7.B.b Packet Pg. 109 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) the landowners for the properties that are included in the Minor Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments. Both have shared preliminary plans to develop a combination of affordable and market rate housing. The preliminary development plan shown in Figure 14 was the subject of a Pre-Application Conference held on October 19, 2021 for 1777 East Pine Street. As shown in the Map Amendment applications, the City’s proposal aligns with the preliminary development plan to support increased housing. However, in recognition of the need for higher density housing, the City is proposing that the northeast portion of the site be designated as HMR and not MMR, which increases the minimum housing density by 11 units per acre. Figure 14 - Preliminary Development Plan, 1777 East Pine Street Two informal preliminary development meetings have held with the property owner for the Taylor Road properties. We discussed the preliminary concept to provide cottage-style multifamily units that are small and affordable for older adults who are seeking age-in- place housing. The most recent preliminary plan is shown in Figure 15. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 110 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Figure 15 - Preliminary Housing Plan (Taylor Road at North Haskell Street) Based on these meetings, the City staff presented and the City Council initiated proposed Minor comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments to support housing production while maintaining opportunities for employment uses in the TOD Overlay and associated zoning. As shown in Tables 1 and 2, below, the proposed amendments would increase housing production by a minimum of 198 or 275 units depending on whether the Council adopts Scenario 1 (Figures 4 and 9) or Scenario 2 (Figures 5 and 10). At this time, housing is prohibited on the properties that are part of this application.

Finding, Goal 11: The proposed Map Amendments are served by existing and planned public facilities and services per the Public Facilities Element of the Comprehensive Plan, the Transportation System Plan, Water System Master Plan and Stormwater Management Plan. Construction of extended facilities and services will occur as a function of land development. Conclusion, Goal 11: Consistent. 3.12 Goal 12 – Transportation To provide and encourage a safe, convenient and economic transportation system. Finding, Goal 12: The proposed Map Amendments are in areas with existing and planned transportation facilities. Extension of facilities and services, such as roads, sidewalks, bike lanes and transit stations will be a function of land development. Additionally, inclusion of the properties in the TOD Overlay emphasizes compact land development patterns and provision of multi-modal transportation facilities and services that are necessary to support highly livable neighborhoods for all segments of the population, including those who do not own a car. Accordingly, the City finds that proposed Map Amendments are supportive of the State’s Transportation Goals. Conclusion, Goal 12: Consistent. 3.13 Goal 13 – Energy Utilization To conserve energy. Finding, Goal 13: The proposed Map Amendments do not impact energy utilization in and of themselves; however, future land development within high density, mixed-use neighborhoods reduces energy consumption by promoting multi-modal transportation options and locating jobs within walking distance of housing. This may have the added benefit of reducing the need for automobile ownership as the area develops. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 112 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Conclusion, Goal 13: Consistent. 3.14 Goal 14 – Urbanization To provide for an orderly and efficient transition from rural to urban land use, to accommodate urban population and urban employment inside urban growth boundaries, to ensure efficient use of land, and to provide for livable communities. Finding, Goal 14: The proposed Map Amendments are within the UGB and apply land use designations that transition density within the context of surrounding land use/zoning designations and adjacent road classifications. This provides for an orderly and efficient transition to urban use.

(1) If an amendment to a functional plan, an acknowledged comprehensive plan, or a land use regulation (including a zoning map) would significantly affect an existing or planned transportation facility, then the local government must put in place measures as provided in section (2) of this rule, unless the amendment is allowed under section (3), (9) or (10) of this rule. A plan or land use regulation amendment significantly affects a transportation facility if it would: (a) Change the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility (exclusive of correction of map errors in an adopted plan); (b) Change standards implementing a functional classification system; or (c) Result in any of the effects listed in paragraphs (A) through (C) of this subsection. If a local government is evaluating a performance standard based on projected levels of motor vehicle traffic, then the results must be based on projected conditions measured at the end of the planning period identified in the adopted TSP. As part of evaluating projected conditions, the amount of traffic projected to be generated within the area of the amendment may be reduced if the amendment includes an enforceable, ongoing requirement that would demonstrably limit traffic generation, including, but not limited to, transportation demand management. This reduction may diminish or completely eliminate the significant effect of the amendment. (A) Types or levels of travel or access that are inconsistent with the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility; (B) Degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility such that it would not meet the performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan; or (C) Degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility that is otherwise projected to not meet the performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(1): The Proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zone Map Amendments were evaluated for traffic impacts by southern Oregon Transportation Engineering, LLC. Taylor Road The Traffic Impact Analysis for Taylor Road dated August 21, 2023, found that the proposed Amendment from Civic to High Density Residential/MMR zone, decreases traffic impacts. Specifically, the TIA found that the proposed modification in the land use and zoning designations decreases the traffic by 98 Average Daily Trips (ADT) and 33 7.B.b Packet Pg. 114 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) AM and PM Peak Hour Trips. Additionally, there is no significant increase in vehicles exceeding 20,000 pounds. 1777 East Pine Street The TIA for 1777 East Pine Street dated July 6, 2023 evaluated traffic impacts for the site based on two scenarios that will be considered by the Planning Commission and City Council. As demonstrated in the TIA, both scenarios show an overall decrease in trips to the transportation system based on the highest and best uses for existing and proposed zoning. • Scenario 1: o Decreases trips by 3,713 ADT when compared to full commercial zoning; o Decreases PM Peak Hour Trips by 336 trips. • Scenario 2: o Decreases trips by 2,204 ADT when compared to full commercial zoning; and, o Decreases PM Peak Hour Trips by 198 trips. Under both scenarios, the traffic analysis showed that there are no trips directly to or from the state highway system and that there will be no increase in heavy vehicles over 20,000 pounds gross vehicle weight. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(1): As demonstrated in the TIA for Taylor Road and 1777 East Pine Street, there is no significant impact to the transportation system that will result from the proposed Map Amendments. (2) If a local government determines that there would be a significant effect, then the local government must ensure that allowed land uses are consistent with the performance standards of the facility measured or projected at the end of the planning period identified in the adopted TSP through one or a combination of the remedies listed in subsections (a) through (e) below, unless the amendment meets the balancing test in subsection (e) or qualifies for partial mitigation in section (11) of this rule. A local government using subsection (e), section (3), section (10) or section (11) to approve an amendment recognizes that additional motor vehicle traffic congestion may result and that other facility providers would not be expected to provide additional capacity for motor vehicles in response to this congestion. (a) Adopting measures that demonstrate allowed land uses are consistent with the performance standards of the transportation facility. (b) Amending the TSP or comprehensive plan to provide transportation facilities, improvements, or services adequate to support the proposed land uses consistent with the requirements of this division. Such amendments shall include a funding plan or mechanism consistent with section (4) or include an amendment to the transportation finance plan so that the facility, improvement, or service will be provided by the end of the planning period. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 115 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) (c) Amending the TSP to modify the performance standards of the transportation facility. (d) Providing other measures as a condition of development or through a development agreement or similar funding method, including, but not limited to, transportation system management measures or minor transportation improvements. Local governments shall, as part of the amendment, specify when measures or improvements provided pursuant to this subsection will be provided. (e) Providing improvements that would benefit modes other than the significantly affected mode, improvements to facilities other than the significantly affected facility, or improvements at other locations, if: (A) The provider of the significantly affected facility provides a written statement that the system-wide benefits are sufficient to balance the significant effect, even though the improvements would not result in consistency for all performance standards; (B) The providers of facilities being improved at other locations provide written statements of approval; and (C) The local jurisdictions where facilities are being improved provide written statements of approval. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(2): See Finding OAR 660-012-0060(1). Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060 (2): Not applicable. (3) Notwithstanding sections (1) and (2) of this rule, a local government may approve an amendment that would significantly affect an existing transportation facility without ensuring that the allowed land uses are consistent with the performance standards of the facility where: (a) In the absence of the amendment, planned transportation facilities, improvements, and services as set forth in section (4) of this rule would not be adequate to achieve consistency with the performance standard for that facility by the end of the planning period identified in the adopted TSP; (b) Development resulting from the amendment will, at a minimum, mitigate the impacts of the amendment in a manner that avoids further degradation to the performance of the facility by the time of the development through one or a combination of transportation improvements or measures; (c) The amendment does not involve property located in an interchange area as defined in paragraph (4)(d)(C); and (d) For affected state highways, ODOT provides a written statement that the proposed funding and timing for the identified mitigation improvements or 7.B.b Packet Pg. 116 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) measures are, at a minimum, sufficient to avoid further degradation to the performance of the affected state highway. However, if a local government provides the appropriate ODOT regional office with written notice of a proposed amendment in a manner that provides ODOT reasonable opportunity to submit a written statement into the record of the local government proceeding, and ODOT does not provide a written statement, then the local government may proceed with applying subsections (a) through (c) of this section. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(3): See Finding OAR 660-012-0060(1). Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060 (3): Not applicable. (4) Determinations under sections (1)–(3) of this rule shall be coordinated with affected transportation facility and service providers and other affected local governments. (a) In determining whether an amendment has a significant effect on an existing or planned transportation facility under subsection (1)(c) of this rule, local governments shall rely on existing transportation facilities and services and on the planned transportation facilities, improvements and services set forth in subsections (b) and (c) below. (b) Outside of interstate interchange areas, the following are considered planned facilities, improvements, and services: (A) Transportation facilities, improvements or services that are funded for construction or implementation in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program or a locally or regionally adopted transportation improvement program or capital improvement plan or program of a transportation service provider. (B) Transportation facilities, improvements or services that are authorized in a local transportation system plan and for which a funding plan or mechanism is in place or approved. These include, but are not limited to, transportation facilities, improvements, or services for which: transportation systems development charge revenues are being collected; a local improvement district or reimbursement district has been established or will be established prior to development; a development agreement has been adopted; or conditions of approval to fund the improvement have been adopted. (C) Transportation facilities, improvements, or services in a metropolitan planning organization (MPO) area that are part of the area’s federally- approved, financially constrained regional transportation system plan. (D) Improvements to state highways that are included as planned improvements in a regional or local transportation system plan or comprehensive plan when ODOT provides a written statement that the 7.B.b Packet Pg. 117 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) improvements are reasonably likely to be provided by the end of the planning period. (E) Improvements to regional and local roads, streets or other transportation facilities or services that are included as planned improvements in a regional or local transportation system plan or comprehensive plan when the local government(s) or transportation service provider(s) responsible for the facility, improvement or service provides a written statement that the facility, improvement, or service is reasonably likely to be provided by the end of the planning period. (c) Within interstate interchange areas, the improvements included in paragraphs (b)(A)–(C) are considered planned facilities, improvements, and services, except where: (A) ODOT provides a written statement that the proposed funding and timing of mitigation measures are sufficient to avoid a significant adverse impact on the Interstate Highway system, then local governments may also rely on the improvements identified in paragraphs (b)(D) and (E) of this section; or (B) There is an adopted interchange area management plan, then local governments may also rely on the improvements identified in that plan and which are also identified in paragraphs (b)(D) and (E) of this section. (d) As used in this section and section (3): (A) Planned interchange means new interchanges and relocation of existing interchanges that are authorized in an adopted transportation system plan or comprehensive plan; (B) Interstate highway means Interstates 5, 82, 84, 105, 205, and 405; and (C) Interstate interchange area means: (i) Property within one-quarter mile of the ramp terminal intersection of an existing or planned interchange on an Interstate Highway; or (ii) The interchange area as defined in the Interchange Area Management Plan adopted as an amendment to the Oregon Highway Plan. (e) For purposes of this section, a written statement provided pursuant to paragraphs (b)(D), (b)(E) or (c)(A) provided by ODOT, a local government or transportation facility provider, as appropriate, shall be conclusive in determining whether a transportation facility, improvement, or service is a planned transportation facility, improvement, or service. In the absence of a written 7.B.b Packet Pg. 118 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) statement, a local government can only rely upon planned transportation facilities, improvements, and services identified in paragraphs (b)(A)-(C) to determine whether there is a significant effect that requires application of the remedies in section (2). Finding OAR 660-012-0060(4): The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zone Map Amendment on properties located at the intersection of Taylor Road and North Haskell Street are adjacent to City owned and operated facilities and are not within and Interchange Area Management Plan or area of influence (1/2 mile). The Proposed Amendments and TIA scoping at this location were coordinated with the City Public Works Department consistent with this rule. The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zone Map Amendments located at 1777 East Pine Street are within the ½ mile of the I-5 and Exit 33 Interchange. Per the 2015 Interchange Area Management Plan for Exit 33 (IAMP), there are improvements that will identified in the vicinity of the site to improve traffic flow and function of the interchange. Intersection improvements at East Pine/Hamrick Road were recently completed (Project 11/TSP Project #216). Other improvements will be implemented as a function of development, including signal timing (IAMP Project 5) and Peninger Road/East Pine Street Improvements (IAMP Project 10/TSP Project 236). As stated in the TIA, the interchange traffic was analyzed and there are no trips to or from Interstate 5 that will be generated by the proposal. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060 (4): As demonstrated in the TIA for both property areas that are the subject of the proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments, the analysis of traffic impacts was coordinated with affected agencies, including Public Works and ODOT. (5) The presence of a transportation facility or improvement shall not be a basis for an exception to allow residential, commercial, institutional, or industrial development on rural lands under this division or OAR 660-004-0022 and 660-004-0028. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(5): The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zone Map Amendments are on lands within the city limits and do not include rural lands. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060 (5): Not applicable. (6) If a local government is determining whether proposed land uses would affect or be consistent with planned transportation facilities as provided in sections (1) and (2) using a performance standard based on projected levels of motor vehicle traffic, then the local government shall give full credit for potential reduction in vehicle trips for uses located in mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly centers, and neighborhoods as provided in subsections (a)–(d); (a) Absent adopted local standards or detailed information about the vehicle trip reduction benefits of mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly development, local governments shall assume that uses located within a mixed-use, pedestrian- 7.B.b Packet Pg. 119 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) friendly center, or neighborhood, will generate 10 percent fewer daily and peak hour trips than are specified in available published estimates, such as those provided by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual that do not specifically account for the effects of mixed-use, pedestrian- friendly development. The 10 percent reduction allowed for by this subsection shall be available only if uses that rely solely on auto trips, such as gas stations, car washes, storage facilities, and motels are prohibited; (b) Local governments shall use detailed or local information about the trip reduction benefits of mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly development where such information is available and presented to the local government. Local governments may, based on such information, allow reductions greater than the 10 percent reduction required in subsection (a); (c) Where a local government assumes or estimates lower vehicle trip generation as provided in subsection (a) or (b), it shall ensure through conditions of approval, site plans, or approval standards that subsequent development approvals support the development of a mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly center or neighborhood and provide for on-site bike and pedestrian connectivity and access to transit as provided for in OAR 660-012-0045(3) and (4). The provision of on-site bike and pedestrian connectivity and access to transit may be accomplished through application of acknowledged ordinance provisions which comply with OAR 660-012-0045(3) and (4) or through conditions of approval or findings adopted with the plan amendment that ensure compliance with these rule requirements at the time of development approval; and (d) The purpose of this section is to provide an incentive for the designation and implementation of pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use centers and neighborhoods by lowering the regulatory barriers to plan amendments that accomplish this type of development. The actual trip reduction benefits of mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly development will vary from case to case and may be somewhat higher or lower than presumed pursuant to subsection (a). The commission concludes that this assumption is warranted given general information about the expected effects of mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly development and its intent to encourage changes to plans and development patterns. Nothing in this section is intended to affect the application of provisions in local plans or ordinances that provide for the calculation or assessment of systems development charges or in preparing conformity determinations required under the federal Clean Air Act. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(6): The proposed Map Amendments on Taylor Road is within the TOD Overlay, a Mixed-use pedestrian friendly area. The proposed Map Amendments at 1777 East Pine Street are to include this property in the TOD Overlay. The TIAs prepared for both locations did not discount the traffic impacts based on the location being in or proposed to be in a mixed-use/pedestrian friendly area. Even so both TIAs found reductions in estimated future traffic impacts. The City does not have localized information about the benefits of development in these areas with regard to VMT reduction beyond the recommended 10% reduction in this rule.

(c) When a mainline facility provider reviews an MMA designation as provided in subparagraph (b)(E)(iii) of this section, the provider must consider the factors listed in paragraph (A) of this subsection. (A) The potential for operational or safety effects to the interchange area and the mainline highway, specifically considering: (i) Whether the interchange area has a crash rate that is higher than the statewide crash rate for similar facilities; (ii) Whether the interchange area is in the top ten percent of locations identified by the safety priority index system (SPIS) developed by ODOT; and (iii) Whether existing or potential future traffic queues on the interchange exit ramps extend onto the mainline highway or the portion of the ramp needed to safely accommodate deceleration. (B) If there are operational or safety effects as described in paragraph (A) of this subsection, the effects may be addressed by an agreement between the local government and the facility provider regarding traffic management plans favoring traffic movements away from the interchange, particularly those facilitating clearing traffic queues on the 7.B.b Packet Pg. 124 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) interchange exit ramps. (d) A local government may designate an MMA by adopting an amendment to the comprehensive plan or land use regulations to delineate the boundary following an existing zone, multiple existing zones, an urban renewal area, other existing boundary, or establishing a new boundary. The designation must be accompanied by findings showing how the area meets the definition of an MMA. Designation of an MMA is not subject to the requirements in sections (1) and (2) of this rule. (e) A local government may designate an MMA on an area where comprehensive plan map designations or land use regulations do not meet the definition, if all of the other elements meet the definition, by concurrently adopting comprehensive plan or land use regulation amendments necessary to meet the definition. Such amendments are not subject to performance standards related to motor vehicle traffic congestion, delay, or travel time. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(10): The proposed amendments are not within an MMA. Traffic analysis was prepared in accordance with this rule as demonstrated in the TIA prepared by Southern Oregon Transportation Engineers, LLC on July 6, 2023 and August 21, 2023. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060 (10): Not applicable. (11) A local government may approve an amendment with partial mitigation as provided in section (2) of this rule if the amendment complies with subsection (a) of this section, the amendment meets the balancing test in subsection (b) of this section, and the local government coordinates as provided in subsection (c) of this section. (a) The amendment must meet paragraphs (A) and (B) of this subsection. (A) Create direct benefits in terms of industrial or traded-sector jobs created or retained by limiting uses to industrial or traded-sector industries. (B) Not allow retail uses, except limited retail incidental to industrial or traded sector development, not to exceed five percent of the net developable area. (C) For the purpose of this section: (i) “Industrial” means employment activities generating income from the production, handling, or distribution of goods including, but not limited to, manufacturing, assembly, fabrication, processing, storage, logistics, warehousing, importation, distribution and transshipment, and research and development. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 125 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) (ii) “Traded-sector” means industries in which member firms sell their goods or services into markets for which national or international competition exists. (b) A local government may accept partial mitigation only if the local government determines that the benefits outweigh the negative effects on local transportation facilities and the local government receives from the provider of any transportation facility that would be significantly affected written concurrence that the benefits outweigh the negative effects on their transportation facilities. If the amendment significantly affects a state highway, then ODOT must coordinate with the Oregon Business Development Department regarding the economic and job creation benefits of the proposed amendment as defined in subsection (a) of this section. The requirement to obtain concurrence from a provider is satisfied if the local government provides notice as required by subsection (c) of this section and the provider does not respond in writing (either concurring or non-concurring) within 45 days. (c) A local government that proposes to use this section must coordinate with Oregon Business Development Department, Department of Land Conservation and Development, area commission on transportation, metropolitan planning organization, and transportation providers and local governments directly impacted by the proposal to allow opportunities for comments on whether the proposed amendment meets the definition of economic development, how it would affect transportation facilities and the adequacy of proposed mitigation. Informal consultation is encouraged throughout the process starting with pre- application meetings. Coordination has the meaning given in ORS 197.015 and Goal 2 and must include notice at least 45 days before the first evidentiary hearing. Notice must include the following: (A) Proposed amendment. (B) Proposed mitigating actions from section (2) of this rule.

(E) Findings showing that the benefits of the proposed amendment outweigh the negative effects on transportation facilities. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(2): Since mitigation in whole or part was not recommended based on results of the TIA dated July 6, 2023 and the TIA dated August 21, 2023, the provisions in this section of the rule do not apply. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 126 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060 (2): Not applicable. 5 City of Central Point Comprehensive Plan A review of the Central Point Comprehensive Plan finds that the Land Use and Housing and Economic Elements apply to the proposed Land Use and Zone Map Amendments. In accordance with CPMC 17.10 and CPMC 17.96, the Comprehensive Plan applies to the Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment (CPA-23001) and the Zoning Map Amendment (ZC- 23001) The goals and policies for the applicable Elements are set forth and addressed below. Housing Element The Housing Element aims to assure that the City’s land use policies support a variety of housing types at densities and locations that provide and encourage opportunities of for the provision of adequate numbers of needed housing units at price ranges and rent levels commensurate with the financial capabilities of the City’s households. It also aims to open and maintain communication between private industry and local public officials in seeking an improved housing environment within the Greater Bear Creek Valley Region. It contains seven (7) goals and twenty-seven (27) policies. Housing Goal 1. To provide an adequate supply of housing to meet the diverse needs of the City’s current and projected households. Housing Policy 1.1. Continue to support new residential development at the new minimum residential densities. Finding, Housing Policy 1.1: At the time of land development, the City will implement its minimum residential densities set forth in the land development code. Conclusion, Housing Policy 1.1: Complies. Housing Policy 1.2. Develop a Housing Implementation Plan that is regularly updated based current market conditions. Finding, Housing Policy 1.2: The City adopted the Housing Implementation Plan (HIP) on December 13, 2018 (City Council Resolution No. 1560). The HIP sets forth a housing strategy for a 5-year period, 2019-2024. The proposed UGB Amendment implements Action No. 3.2.4 in the HIP, to include sufficient buildable residential lands in the UGB to accommodate the City’s housing needs and to plan in accordance with the approved Conceptual Land Use plans. Adoption of the proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments further the goals of the HIP and does not interfere or otherwise conflict with the City’s policy to regularly update it based on current market conditions. Conclusion, Housing Policy 1.2: Consistent. Housing Policy 1.3. Provide an efficient and consistent development review process. Finding, Housing Policy 1.3: The City’s proposed Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Maps do not conflict or interfere with provision of an efficient and consistent development review process. Conclusion, Housing Policy 1.3: Not applicable. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 127 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Housing Policy 1.4. Work with regional partners to develop and implement measure that reduce upfront housing development costs. Finding, Housing Policy 1.4: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments aim to provide needed housing in accordance with the Housing Element and Executive Order 23-04. At present, there is a low supply of housing available that contributes to high cost. Although the proposed Map Amendments do not directly affect upfront cost, provide land use and zoning designations that respond to market demands for housing on the affected properties. These applications are an example of public- private partnership to increase land supply for housing. This does not affect other efforts to work with regional partners to implement measures that directly reduce upfront housing development cost. Conclusion, Housing Policy 1.4: Consistent. Housing Policy 1.5. Support UGB expansions and annexations that can be efficiently provided with urban services and that will in a timely manner meet the City’s housing needs. Finding, Housing Policy 1.5: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not require or otherwise involve a UGB Amendment or Annexation application. Conclusion, Housing Policy 1.5: Not applicable. Housing Policy 1.6. When properly mitigated to preserve the integrity of existing neighborhoods support higher density residential development within the Downtown and older surrounding residential areas, capitalizing on availability of existing infrastructure and supporting revitalization efforts. Finding, Housing Policy 1.6: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not interfere or otherwise conflict with higher density infill developments within the downtown or older surrounding residential areas. The subject properties are located away from the downtown. Conclusion, Housing Policy 1.6: Not applicable. Housing Goal 2. To encourage the development and preservation of fair and affordable housing. Housing Policy 2.1. Through a Housing Implementation Plan explore and promote federal, state, and regional programs and incentives that support new affordable housing. Finding, Housing Policy 2.1: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments aim to support affordable housing projects that are market-rate affordable and publicly subsidized. These applications both support the HIP objectives using local resources. The applications do not interfere or conflict with other efforts to explore federal, state and regional programs and incentives. Conclusion, Housing Policy 2.1: Not applicable. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 128 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Housing Policy 2.2. Support and participate in the Greater Bear Creek Valley Regional Plan’s program addressing regional housing strategies, particularly as they apply to affordable housing. Finding, Housing Policy 2.2: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not interfere or otherwise conflict with the City’s ability to support and participate in the Greater Bear Creek Valley Regional Plan’s program addressing regional housing strategies, including affordable housing. Conclusion, Housing Policy 2.2: Not applicable. Housing Policy 2.3. Support regional efforts addressing homelessness, medical and social services for special need households. Finding, Housing Policy 2.3: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not affect the City’s support for regional efforts to address homelessness or services for special needs households.

To maintain a timely supply of vacant residential acres sufficient to accommodate development of new housing to serve the City’s projected population. Housing Policy 3.1. Provide a sufficient inventory of residential planned and zoned vacant land to meet projected demand in terms of density, tenure, unit size, accessibility, and cost. Finding, Housing Policy 3.1: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments modify the land use and zoning designations to support high density housing. Although the City recently added land to its UGB for housing and has a its required 20-year land supply, most of the available land is not in housing production due to annexation requirements, lack of landowner willingness. The proposed amendments respond to the need for housing where there is demonstration of landowner willingness and capability to produce housing. Conclusion, Housing Policy 3.1: Consistent. Housing Policy 3.2. Throughout the 2019-2039 planning period the City’s new vacant residential land use mix shall support an average density of not less than 6.9 dwelling units per gross. Finding, Housing Policy 3.2: The current land supply in the city limits and UGB support attainment of 6.9 units/gross acre. The added high-density residential land within the city limits is consistent with and supportive of attaining higher densities within the urban area. Conclusion, Housing Policy 3.2: Consistent. Housing Policy 3.3. Update the Housing Element’s vacant acreage needs every four- years consistent with the PSU Population Research Centers update of population. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 129 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Finding, Housing Policy 3.3: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not affect the City’s schedule for updating the Housing Element. Conclusion, Housing Policy 3.3: Not applicable. Housing Policy 3.4. To avoid speculation the City shall, when expanding the UGB establish procedures that give priority to lands that will be developed in a timely manner and with a residential mix and density consistent with the Housing Element. Finding, Housing Policy 3.4: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not include expansion of the UGB. Conclusion, Housing Policy 3.4: Not applicable. Housing Policy 3.5. Monitor residential in-fill development activity and develop and enact programs that encourage the expanded use of in-fill as a component to the City’s residential land use inventory. Finding, Housing Policy 3.5: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments are intended to encourage and expand residential infill. Conclusion, Housing Policy 3.5: Consistent. Housing Goal 4. To ensure that a variety of housing will be provided in the City in terms of location, type, price and tenure, according to the projected needs of the population. Housing Policy 4.1. Residential land use designations on the General Land Use Plan and the Zoning Map shall be compliant with the residential land use needs and housing types identified in the Housing Element. Finding, Housing Policy 4.1: The proposed land use and zoning designations for the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments align with the land use and housing needs identified in the Housing Element, as well as state directed emphasis to increase housing production per Executive Order 23-04. Pending approval Conclusion, Housing Policy 4.1: Consistent. Housing Policy 4.2. Based on the findings of the Housing Implementation Plan incentivize housing types that are needed but not being provided in adequate numbers by the private sector market forces. Finding, Housing Policy 4.2: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendment does not affect the City’s ability to enact findings of the Housing Implementation Plan, including but not limited to incentives for underrepresented but needed housing types. In this case, both properties included in the application were initiated based on the landowner’s demonstrated interest in building a combination of market rate, market rate affordable and publicly funded affordable housing. Conclusion, Housing Policy 4.2: Consistent. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 130 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Housing Policy 4.3. In larger residential developments (in excess of 5 acres) encourage a mix of densities and housing types to accommodate a variety of households based on age and income levels. Finding, Housing Policy 4.3: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendment on Taylor Road affects only 0.9 acres. However, the proposed Amendments at 1777 East Pine Street includes over 21 acres. The land development regulations in the TOD Overlay require master plan approval for land development proposals on sites greater than 2 acres. As part of master plan approval, proposals must demonstrate compliance with CPMC 17.65, TOD Overlay and CPMC 17.67, Design and Development Standards—TOD Overlay including but not limited to providing a mix of housing Conclusion, Housing Policy 4.3: Consistent. Housing Policy 4.4. Support programs that encourage the ability of older residents to age in place by making existing housing more age friendly and accessible. Finding, Housing Policy 4.4: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendment on property located at Taylor Road and North Haskell Street is supportive of a multifamily, cottage style development for older residents to age in place. Conclusion, Housing Policy 4.4: Consistent. Housing Goal 5. To ensure that municipal development procedures and standards are not unreasonable impediments to the provision of affordable housing. Housing Policy 5.1. As part of a Housing Implementation Plan periodically evaluate development procedures and standards for compliance with the goals of this Housing Element and modify as appropriate.

Conclusion, Housing Policy 7.4: Not applicable. Housing Policy 7.5. Maintain and enforce Chapter 17.71 Agricultural Mitigation ensuring that all new residential development along the periphery of the Urban Growth Boundary includes an adequate buffer between the urban uses and abutting agricultural uses on lands zoned Exclusive Farm Use (EFU). Finding, Housing Policy 7.5: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not include or affect agricultural lands or otherwise preclude the City’s ability to maintain and enforce the regulations for Agricultural Mitigation in CPMC 17.71. Conclusion, Housing Policy 7.5: Not applicable. Economic Element The Economic Element provide s a framework for meeting the City’s economic goal to diversity its economic base. Economic Element Goals: 1. To actively promote a strong, diversified and sustainable local economy that reinforces Central Point’s “small town feel” and family orientation while preserving or enhancing the quality of life in the community as a place to live, work and play. Because this Economic Element concludes that there will be economic uncertainty in the short-term, it is important that Central Point work to diversify and strengthen its 7.B.b Packet Pg. 133 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) economy. By continuing to analyze economic trends, Central Point will be able to continue growing strong throughout the 2019-2039 period. 2. To create meaningful incentives to encourage and support economic development. Central Point has historically been a bedroom community where people live but work elsewhere. In order to maintain a strong tax base and to ensure continued economic prosperity, Central Point must take an active role in encouraging economic development. 3. To encourage and promote the development, redevelopment, and enhancement of retail and office areas to achieve a vibrant shopping entertainment, living and working experience in the downtown area. This goal is important because Central Point needs a vibrant downtown in order to ensure future economic prosperity. Further, based on the current BLI and the project land use needs, Central Point is going to need targeted redevelopment strategies to encourage these types of activities in the future. 4. To encourage active communication and cooperation between the City, local and state agencies, and local businesses concerning economic development, education and workforce development. The city cannot reach its goals without the assistance of others. As a result, the City needs to be receptive to suggestions and aid from others and also needs to be active in communicating its needs and plans. 5. To encourage and support growth, particularly in the targeted industries (specialty food manufacturing, and trucking and warehousing sectors). These targeted industries are where the City could make strikes. It is important that the City help maintain and grow these industries now and in the future. 6. To maintain at all times an adequate supply of suitable short-term (five-year) employment lands. Central Point does not have an adequate short-term supply of lands for institutional/government and other employment types. As a result, the City should plan to add to the land supply in the near future. 7. To prepare and maintain a City of Central Point Economic Development Manual identifying and monitoring economic development strategies and programs available to the City. 8. Create a positive environment for industrial, commercial and institutional job growth and development by maintaining an adequate land supply; providing a local development 7.B.b Packet Pg. 134 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) review process that is predicable, responsive, and efficient; and delivering high quality public facilities and services. 9. Assure, through the UGB process, that adequate commercial lands are planned and designated for the development of pedestrian oriented neighborhood commercial centers to serve the City’s new residential neighborhoods. The Economic Element Goals are implemented through the following ten (10) policies: Economic Policy 1, Participation. The City shall participate on the regional and state level in the development and programming of alternative financial incentives and initiatives for economic development, including education and workforce development that are consistent with the City’s economic development goals. Finding, Economic Policy 1: The City’s proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not preclude or otherwise conflict with the City’s participation on the regional or state level in development and programming for financial incentives and initiative for economic development. Conclusion Economic Policy 1: Not applicable. Economic Policy 2, Refine Policies. The City shall continue to monitor and refine its land development and fiscal policies as they relate to economic development to ensure that the City’s economic development programming can be effectively implemented. Finding, Economic Policy 2: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not interfere with or otherwise conflict with the City’s ability to monitor and refine policies relative to economic development. Conclusion Economic Policy 2: Not applicable. Economic Policy 3, Monitor Long-Term Consequences. Consider economic development incentives as an inducement to development only when it can be demonstrated that the short- term consequences are understood and found to be acceptable and the long-term consequences are determined to be beneficial to the City. Finding, Economic Policy 3: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not interfere with or otherwise conflict with the City’s ability to consider or implement incentives for beneficial economic development. Conclusion Economic Policy 3: Not applicable. Economic Policy 4, Small Business. Central Point concludes that the City has experienced the loss of cottage industry and expanding small businesses due to a lack of vacant available employment related buildings (flex-space1) and the City cannot attract small businesses from elsewhere for the same reason. 1 An industrial or commercial/office building designed to provide the flexibility to utilize the floor space in a variety of configurations. Usually provides a configuration allowing a flexible amount of office or showroom space in combination with manufacturing, laboratory, warehouse distribution, etc. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 135 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Finding, Economic Policy 4: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments Amendment retains the existing commercial land supply through the opportunity for a mix of residential and commercial uses. Although the land use and zoning designations (current and proposed) do not result in the immediate construction of needed building space, the Amendments support these activities as necessary to address the loss of cottage industry and expanding small businesses. Conclusion Economic Policy 4: Consistent. Economic Policy 5, Business Innovation. Encourage innovation, research, development, and commercialization of new technologies, products and services through responsive regulations and public sector approaches. Finding, Economic Policy 5: Business innovation activities by the City are not affected or impeded by the proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments. Conclusion Economic Policy 5: Not applicable. Economic Policy 6, Tolo Area. The City shall in collaboration with Jackson County continue planning the Exit 35 area—also called “Area CP-1B (Tolo)”—in the Regional Plan Element to capitalize on economic opportunities, especially for transportation-based economic activity and truck/rail freight support services. This area also contains the aeronautics manufacturing company Erickson Air Crane and serves aggregate uses; these uses have many specific and unique dimensions that should be carefully considered. Plans and land use regulations applicable to this area need to account for the site requirements of firms in these sectors. Because the area is currently constrained as a result of a lack of access to water, the City should begin planning how to make water more readily available so as to make these lands available for more economic development. Finding, Economic Policy 6: The CP-1B Tolo area is not included in either the Comprehensive Plan or Zoning Map Amendments. The proposed Amendments do not affect the City’s ability to develop and implement plans in this area. Conclusion Economic Policy 6: Not applicable. Economic Policy 7, Monitor Regulations. The City shall periodically evaluate its regulations for employment related development, particularly as it relates to targeted industries, as well as compatibility with adjacent non-employment lands to ensure that regulations are consistent with applicable best practices. Regulations found to no longer be appropriate should be amended as soon as practicable thereafter. Finding, Economic Policy 7: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not interfere with other otherwise conflict with the City’s ability to evaluate and update its land development regulations relative to employment uses. Conclusion Economic Policy 7: Not applicable. Economic Policy 8, Adequate Short-Term Supply. The City shall assure that, through its Capital Improvement Program, public facilities and transportation facilities are available and adequate in capacity to maintain a supply of competitive short-term buildable lands sufficient to meet employment needs within a 5-year period, particularly for the retail, specialty foods, professional health care and trucking sectors. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 136 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Finding, Economic Policy 8: The City’s public facility plans for transportation, water and stormwater have all been updated. There are adequate facilities planned and available to serve development on the two sites that are the subject of the proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments. Conclusion Economic Policy 8: Consistent . Economic Policy 9, Prepare for Long-Term Needs. The City shall maintain a supply of competitive short-term employment lands in the medium and large site categories equivalent to the twenty-year demand for those categories. The supply of short-term employment land shall be reviewed and updated annually. When it is determined that the supply of land as measured in terms of the number of sites and/or acreage in the medium and large site categories is inadequate to serve the twenty-year land needs, then the City shall amend the UGB to include additional short-term (5-year) employment lands. Finding, Economic Policy 9: The proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment retains employment lands via mixed-use zoning. This is consistent with the short-term supply for large and mediums sites. Conclusion Economic Policy 9: Consistent. Economic Policy 10, Pedestrian Oriented Neighborhood Commercial Centers. As the City expands the UGB it will include in the land use mix adequate commercial lands for the development of Pedestrian Oriented Commercial Centers designed to complement the physical character and encourage neighborhood pedestrian use. Adequacy of the acreage needed for Pedestrian Oriented Commercial Centers will be guided by the Regional Plan land use allocation. Finding, Economic Policy 10: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not involve a UGB Amendment. Notwithstanding, the proposed Amendments at 1777 East Pine Street expand an existing Mixed-use/Pedestrian Friendly Activity Center. Conclusion Economic Policy 10: Consistent. Land Use Element The Land Use Element is responsible for managing and mapping the land use needs of the City as described in other Comprehensive Plan elements. The Land Use Element sets forth goals and policies for Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Civic, Parks and Recreation and Circulation land uses. Since this UGB Amendment does not include industrial lands, the policies for industrial lands are not addressed in these findings. Residential Land Use Policy 1: To continue to ensure that long-range planning and zoning reflects the need to locate the highest densities and greatest numbers of residents in closest possible proximity to existing and future activity centers. Finding, Residential Land Use Policy 1: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments include properties on Taylor Road at North Haskell Street that are within an existing Activity Center. The property at 1777 East Pine Street is proposed to be included in the TOD Overlay, a Mixed-Use/Pedestrian Friendly Activity Center. Proposed land use 7.B.b Packet Pg. 137 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) and zoning designations are consistent with this policy to increases the number of people living within these Mixed-use/Pedestrian Friendly Areas. Conclusion, Residential Land Use Policy 1: Consistent. Residential Land Use Policy 2: To continue to update the Zoning Ordinance, as necessary to take advantage of planning innovation, best practices, and technological improvements that could have applications in Central Point to the benefit of the community. Finding, Residential Land Use Policy 2: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not preclude or otherwise affect the City’s ability to monitor and update its Zoning Ordinance. Conclusion, Residential Land Use Policy 2: Not applicable. Residential Land Use Policy 3: In areas where residential neighborhoods abut commercial or industrial areas, orient the residential structures and local streets away from these land uses to avoid any undesirable views and to strengthen neighborhood solidarity. Finding, Residential Land Use Policy 3: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments are in areas planned and zone for medium and high-density housing and mixed-use opportunities. The street system is planned and designed to support attractive neighborhoods with multimodal transportation facilities consistent with the land use pattern typical of the TOD Overlay areas. Conclusion, Residential Land Use Policy 3: Consistent. Residential Land Use Policy 4: In any area where development of one or more parcels may create obstacles to development of others, the initial developer shall develop a specific plan that would provide for the future development of the entire area, including provision of adequate access to potentially landlocked properties. Finding, Residential Land Use Policy 4: By extending the TOD Overlay to include 1777 East Pine Street, the entire property will be subject to the Master Plan requirement thereby assuring that there are written and illustrated instructions for future development throughout the 21.13-acre site and not just a portion of it. The properties on Taylor Road are oddly shaped and the proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments at this location facilitate housing infill on a site that has been vacant for years. Conclusion, Residential Land Use Policy 4: Consistent. Commercial Land Use Policy 1: Maintain the zoning of all commercial areas of Central Point as necessary to comply with the Economic Element. Finding, Commercial Land Use Policy 1: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments maintain allowance of commercial uses through application of mixed-use residential/commercial zones and therefore does not affect the commercial land supply inside the urban area and does not prevent or otherwise interfere with the City’s maintenance of commercially zoned land. Conclusion, Commercial Land Use Policy 1: Consistent. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 138 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Commercial Land Use Policy 2: Undertake an in-depth study of the downtown business district and develop a comprehensive improvement plan that would include such considerations as traffic circulation and off-street parking, pedestrian and bicycle facilities and access, structural design guidelines, and guidelines for landscaping and signing. Finding, Commercial Land Use Policy 2: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not affect the City’s plans to study the Central Business District. Conclusion, Commercial Land Use Policy 2: Not applicable. Commercial Land Use Policy 3: Encourage the development of shared commercial parking areas in the downtown area to be carried out by the local businesses with City assistance. Finding, Commercial Land Use Policy 3: The City no longer requires minimum parking standards and continues to encourage shared parking where parking provided, including but not limited to the downtown area. Conclusion, Commercial Land Use Policy 3: Consistent. Commercial Land Use Policy 4: Promote the planned integration of abutting commercial development for the purpose of more efficient customer parking, better design and landscaping, coordinated signing, and increased retail sales. Finding, Commercial Land Use Policy 4: The Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not affect the City’s development regulations as they relate to commercial development. Conclusion, Commercial Land Use Policy 4: Not applicable. Commercial Land Use Policy 5: For that section of Highway 99 between Beall Lane and the High School, implement the 99 Corridor Plan to improve the corridor, traffic circulation, and the overall visual and aesthetic character of the area. Finding, Commercial Land Use Policy 5: The proposed Amendments do not affect or otherwise preclude the City’s ability to implement the Highway 99 Corridor Plan. Conclusion, Commercial Land Use Policy 5: Not applicable. Civic Land Use Policy 1: Ensure that any major public or quasi-public facility that is proposed to be located within a residential neighborhood is located along a collector or Arterial Street, is compatible with surrounding land uses, and does not contribute unreasonably to traffic volumes within the neighborhood. Finding, Civic Land Use Policy 1: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not include siting any public or quasi-public facility. Conclusion, Civic Land Use Policy 1: Not applicable. Civic Land Use Policy 2: Work with officials of School District #6 to develop and implement a school site acquisition program that is consistent with the long-range comprehensive plans of the City and the District. Finding, Civic Land Use Policy 2: School District 6 has a land bank for future school sites. No sites are proposed as part of the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments. 7.B.b Packet Pg. 139 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Consequently, this application does not affect or otherwise preclude the City and School District #6 from continuing to work together on long-range planning and school site acquisition. Conclusion, Civic Land Use Policy 2: Not applicable. Civic Land Use Policy 3: Continue to emphasize the need for pedestrian and bicycle access to all public facilities and areas frequented by local residents. Finding, Civic Land Use Policy 3: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendment proposals are within (i.e. Taylor Road) or include extension of existing Mixed- use/Pedestrian Friendly Activity Centers (i.e. 1777 East Pine Street)that are by their nature designed to encourage safe, convenient and comfortable walking and bicycling facilities as part of the street network. Conclusion, Civic Land Use Policy 3: Consistent. Parks and Recreation Land Use Policy 1: Whenever possible, encourage the location of public park sites adjacent to public school sites to establish neighborhood educational/recreational “centers” that can benefit by joint utilization of both types of facilities. Finding, Parks and Recreation Land Use Policy 1: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendments do not include public parks, as the areas are infill sites within the city limits. Public parks designation has already occurred consistent with the Parks Element. Conclusion, Parks and Recreation Land Use Policy 1: Not applicable. Circulation Land Use Policy 1: Prior to inclusion of lands from the URAs into the UGB a traffic impact analysis shall be completed to determine level of service at time of development. Finding, Circulation Land Use Policy 1: The Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendment proposals do not include moving land from the URAs to the UGB. Conclusion, Circulation Land Use Policy : Not applicable. 6 CPMC 17.96, Comprehensive Plan and UGB Amendments The findings and conclusions for CPMC 17.96 are set forth below. 17.96.100 Amendments--Purpose.

The subject parcels are located on the southwest corner of N Haskell Street and Taylor Road in Central Point. Background The two triangular properties are currently zoned Civic. The Civic zoning designation is intended to allow for necessary civic uses in the community. These include schools, post offices, city and county offices, religious institutions, public utility yards and similar uses, which are considered to be compatible uses with the residential neighborhoods that generally surround them. Institutions such as colleges, hospitals, rehabilitation centers, churches and fraternal meeting halls are subject to conditional use review. For the purpose of comparing highest and best uses in this analysis, the outright permitted use with the highest trip generation within the Civic zoning designation is considered a government office. Proposed zoning is Medium Mix Residential (within the Medium Density Residential GLUP designation). This zoning district allows a minimum of 14 and a maximum of 32 units per acre as set forth in CPMC 17.65.050, Table 5. The medium mix residential zoning district allows single family residential and a variety of multifamily residences. Single family residential detached dwelling units generate the highest number of trips per unit. Trip Generation The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition was used to generate trips for existing and proposed zoning districts. The highest traffic generator (outright permitted) within the Civic zoning district is considered a government office. The highest traffic generator within the Medium Mix Residential (MMR) zoning district is a single family residential (SFR) dwelling unit. ITE Land Uses 730 – Government Office and 210 – Single Family Residential were considered the best matches. The largest government office was considered to be 15,900 square feet based on 50% lot coverage. The maximum number of SFR dwelling units under MMR is 23 units. Trip generations for existing and proposed zones are summarized in Table 1. All trips were considered new trips on the transportation system.

ITE trip generations for Land Use 210 based on fitted curve equations Trip generations in Table 1 show a net decrease in trips on the transportation as a result of the proposed zone change from Civic to MMR (Medium Mix Residential). Analysis A traffic impact analysis (TIA) is required as part of an application for a change in zoning or plan amendment per the CPMC 17.05.900. A TIA is required to evaluate potential traffic impacts and address Section 660-012-0045(2)(e) of the State Transportation Planning Rule (TPR). This analysis serves as the TIA for the proposed zone change based on the down-zoning of the subject property. A TIA in Section 17.05.900 of the CPMC is required when the development application involves one or more of the following: a. A change in zoning or plan amendment. A GLUP / zone change is proposed from Civic to Medium Density Residential / MMR but is considered down-zoning based on a net decrease in estimated trip generations using highest and best uses in existing and proposed zoning districts. No significant impact is shown to occur. b. An increase in site traffic volume generation by two hundred fifty average daily trips (ADT) or more Proposed MMR zoning is estimated to generate 261 ADT, which is a net decrease of 98 ADT, when compared to Civic zoning. No significant impact is shown to occur. c. An increase in peak hour volume of a particular movement to and from the state highway by twenty percent or more Proposed MMR zoning is estimated to generate 20 a.m. and 25 p.m. peak hour trips, which is a net decrease of 33 a.m. peak hour trips and 2 p.m. peak hour trips, when compared to Civic zoning. None of the development trips will be directly to or from the state highway. No significant impact is shown to occur. d. An increase in use of adjacent streets by vehicles exceeding the twenty thousand pounds gross vehicle weights by ten vehicles or more per day Table 1 – Proposed Taylor Road Civic to MMR Zone Change Trip Generations Land Use Unit Size Daily Trips Weekday AM Peak Hour Weekday PM Peak Hour Total In Out Total In Out Existing Civic Zoning District 730 – Government Office 1000 SF 15.9 359 53 40 13 27 7 20 Total Existing Potential Trips 359 53 27 Proposed MMR Zoning District 210 – Single Family Residential1 Dwelling 23 261 20 5 15 25 16 9 Total Proposed Potential Trips 261 20 25 Net Trip Difference (-)98 (-)33 (-)2 7.B.b Packet Pg. 147 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) S.O.T.E, LLC | Civic to MMR Zone Change 372W03DC TL 3402/3603 | August 21, 2023 | 3 The proposed zone change will not increase the number of vehicles exceeding twenty thousand pounds gross vehicle weight. No significant impact is shown to occur. Planning for transportation requires coordination between cities and counties, and the Oregon Department of Transportation. Goal 12 requires cities, counties, and the State to create a transportation system plan that takes into account all relevant modes of transportation. The Transportation Planning Rules (TPR) implements and specifies what must be included in local planning efforts for transportation, and what must be addressed and included in the transportation system plan. Oregon Administrative Rule 660-012-0060 must be addressed for plan and land use regulation amendments. Oregon Administrative Rule 660-012-0060 Plan and Land Use Regulation Amendments A plan or land use regulation amendment significantly affects a transportation facility if it would: a. Change the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility No change in functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility will occur as a result of the proposed zone change. b. Change standards implementing a functional classification system; or The proposed zone change will not change standards implementing a functional classification system. c. Result in any of the effects listed in (A) through (C) A. Types or levels of travel or access that are inconsistent with the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility; The proposed zone change will not result in types or levels of travel or access that are inconsistent with the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility. B. Degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility such that it would not meet the performance standard identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan; or The proposed zone change will not degrade the performance of any existing or planned transportation facility. C. Degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility that is otherwise projected to not meet the performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan. The proposed zone change will not degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility that is otherwise projected to not meet the performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan. Conclusions The proposed zone change from Civic to Medium Mix Residential (MMR) is shown to produce a net decrease in trips on the transportation system or down-zone the property. This is concluded to have no significant impact on the transportation system in accordance with the Central Point Municipal Code Section 17.05.900 and Oregon Administrative Rule 660-012-0060, which identify when significant impacts occur as a result of a plan or land use regulation amendment. This concludes our analysis.

The subject property is located on the northwest corner of E. Pine Street and Hamrick Road in Central Point. Background The subject property currently has a GLUP map designation of Employment Commercial and zoning district of Tourist and Office Professional Commercial (C-4). This analysis evaluates a proposed GLUP amendment and zone change to EC/C-4 and High Density Residential/MMR/HMR for the purpose of allowing a mix of commercial/retail and high-density residential uses. Two scenarios are considered based on MMR (medium mix residential) and HMR (high mix residential) zones. These are summarized in Tables 1 and 2: Table 1 – Scenario 1 GLUP Designation / Zone Acreage Use No. Units Square Footage High Density Residential / MMR 5.5 Low Rise Apartments 80 NA High Density Residential / HMR 7.44 Mid Rise Apartments 185 NA Employment Commercial / EC 8.9 Hotel 100 NA Shopping Center NA 33,000 Totals 21.8 365 33,000 Table 2 - Scenario 2 GLUP Designation / Zone Acreage Use No. Units Square Footage High Density Residential / HMR 7.44 Mid Rise Apartments 185 NA Employment Commercial / EC 14.4 Hotel 100 NA Shopping Center NA 53,000 Totals 21.8 285 53,000 7.B.b Packet Pg. 160 At t a c h m e n t : F i n d i n g s o f F a c t a n d C o n c l u s i o n s o f L a w ( 1 8 0 6 : M i n o r C o m p r e h e n s i v e P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) S.O.T.E, LLC | City Initiated Zone Change 372W02D TL 100 | July 6, 2023 | 2 EC/C-4 under existing zoning is estimated to support up to 237,500 square feet of commercial/retail uses using an industry standard of 25% lot coverage. Scenarios 1 and 2 represent reasonable worst-case conditions under mixed zoning combinations, per the City. The type of housing assumed in both MMR and HMR zones is multifamily residential, specifically low-rise and mid-rise apartment complexes. Trip Generation The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition was used to generate trips for existing and proposed zoning districts. Land Use 820 – Shopping Center was used for existing zoning based on development of a 237,500 square foot (SF) shopping center. Land Use 310 – Hotel, 821 – Shopping Plaza, 822 – Strip Retail Plaza, 220 – Multifamily Housing (Low-Rise), and 221 – Multifamily Housing (Mid-Rise) were used to generate trips for proposed Scenarios 1 and 2. Pass-by rates were used for shopping center land uses, in accordance with ITE methodology. Mixed use discounts were used where applicable. Trip generations for existing and proposed zones are summarized in Tables 3 and 4. ITE graphs, land use descriptions, pass-by, and mixed-use sheets are provided in the attachments. SF = square feet Scenario 1, which proposes commercial, high mix residential, and medium mix residential uses, shows a net decrease in trips to the transportation system. Scenario 2 results are provided in Table 4 on the next page.

Analysis A traffic impact analysis (TIA) is required as part of an application for a change in zoning or plan amendment per the CPMC 17.05.900. A TIA is required to evaluate potential traffic impacts and address Section 660-012-0045(2)(e) of the State Transportation Planning Rule (TPR). This analysis serves as the TIA for the proposed zone change, which evaluated trips for two scenarios. A TIA in Section 17.05.900 of the CPMC is required when the development application involves one or more of the following: a. A change in zoning or plan amendment. A GLUP / zone change is proposed from EC/C-4 to a mix of EC/C-4 and High Density Residential/HMR and MMR. Two scenarios were considered. Scenario 1 included commercial, high mix residential, and medium mix residential. Scenario 2 considered commercial and high mix residential. Both scenarios showed an overall net decrease in trips to the transportation system using highest and best uses in existing and proposed zoning districts. No significant impact is shown to occur.

Additionally, none of the development trips will be directly to or from the state highway. No significant impact is shown to occur. d. An increase in use of adjacent streets by vehicles exceeding the twenty thousand pounds gross vehicle weights by ten vehicles or more per day The proposed zone change will not increase the number of vehicles exceeding twenty thousand pounds gross vehicle weight. No significant impact is shown to occur. Planning for transportation requires coordination between cities and counties, and the Oregon Department of Transportation.

Each study site in this land use has at least 150,000 square feet of gross leasable area (GLA). It often has more than one anchor store. Various names can be assigned to a shopping center within this size range, depending on its specific size and tenants, such as community center, regional center, superregional center, fashion center, and power center. A shopping center of this size typically contains more than retail merchandising facilities. Office space, a movie theater, restaurants, a post office, banks, a health club, and recreational facilities are common tenants. A shopping center of this size can be enclosed or open-air. The vehicle trips generated at a shopping center are based upon the total GLA of the center. In the case of a smaller center without an enclosed mall or peripheral buildings, the GLA is the same as the gross floor area of the building. The 150,000 square feet GLA threshold value between community/regional shopping center and plaza that is smaller than the threshold value, the presence or absence of a supermarket within the plaza has a measurable effect on site trip generation. For a shopping center that is larger than the threshold value, the trips generated by its other major tenants mask any effects of the presence or absence of an on-site supermarket. Shopping plaza (40-150k) (Land Use 821), strip retail plaza (<40k) (Land Use 822), and factory outlet center (Land Use 823) are related uses. Additional Data Many shopping centers—in addition to the integrated unit of shops in one building or enclosed around a mall—include outparcels (peripheral buildings or pads located on the perimeter of the center adjacent to the streets and major access points). These buildings are typically drive-in banks, retail stores, restaurants, or small offices. Although the data herein do not indicate which of the centers studied include peripheral buildings, it can be assumed that some of the data show their effect.

Various configurations fit this description, including walkup apartment, mansion apartment, and stacked townhouse. • A walkup apartment typically is two or three floors in height with dwelling units that are accessed by a single or multiple entrances with stairways and hallways. • A mansion apartment is a single structure that contains several apartments within what appears to be a single-family dwelling unit. • second floors. Access to the individual units is typically internal to the structure and provided through a central entry and stairway. • a townhouse dwelling unit that only shares walls with an adjoining unit, the stacked townhouse units share both floors and walls. Access to the individual units is typically internal to the structure and provided through a central entry and stairway. Multifamily housing (mid-rise) (Land Use 221), multifamily housing (high-rise) (Land Use 222), affordable housing (Land Use 223), and off-campus student apartment (low-rise) (Land Use 225) are related land uses. Land Use Subcategory Data are presented for two subcategories for this land use: (1) not close to rail transit and (2) close to rail transit. A site is considered close to rail transit if the walking distance between the residential site entrance and the closest rail transit station entrance is ½ mile or less. Additional Data For the three sites for which both the number of residents and the number of occupied dwelling units were available, there were an average of 2.72 residents per occupied dwelling unit. For the two sites for which the numbers of both total dwelling units and occupied dwelling units were available, an average of 96.2 percent of the total dwelling units were occupied. The technical appendices provide supporting information on time-of-day distributions for this land use.

For the three sites for which data were provided for both occupied dwelling units and residents, there was an average of 2.72 residents per occupied dwelling unit. It is expected that the number of bedrooms and number of residents are likely correlated to the trips generated by a residential site. To assist in future analysis, trip generation studies of all multifamily housing should attempt to obtain information on occupancy rate and on the mix of residential unit sizes (i.e., number of units by number of bedrooms at the site complex).

The proposed Minor Zoning Map Amendment (“Amendment”) must comply with the Comprehensive Plan General Land Use Plan (GLUP) and Overlay Maps. The proposed changes include the following: 1. Taylor Road at North Haskell Street (37S 2W 03DC, Tax Lots 3402, 3603 (0.73 acres) and 37S 2W 10AB, Tax Lot 1300 (0.18 acres). Change the zoning designation to Medium Mix Residential (MMR) to support multifamily housing production. The subject properties are located at the intersection of Taylor Road and North Haskell Street. The proposed change supports the property owner’s objective to develop single-story, cottage-style multifamily units for older adults to age-in-place. 2. 1777 East Pine Street (37S 2W 03D, Tax Lot 100 (21.13 acres). Change the Zoning Map to align with the GLUP and Overlay Maps to support a mix of affordable and market-rate housing while retaining opportunities for commercial uses. Proposed changes include: a. Extend the Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Overlay to include all 21.13 acres and a portion of the adjoining right-of-way. b. Change the existing Tourist and Office Professional (C-4) Zone to Employment Commercial (EC) based on one of the options below: • Scenario 1 – Change 7.4 acres to High Mix Residential (HMR) for market- rate housing and 13.73 acres to EC. • Scenario 2 – Change 7.4 acres to HMR for market rate housing, 5.5 acres to MMR to support affordable housing and 8.23 acres to EC. The Planning Commission conducted a duly noticed public hearing for the above changes, at 7.C Packet Pg. 201 which time it heard testimony expressing concerns about loss of open space, increased traffic and general impacts of growth. The Planning Commission unanimously forwarded a favorable recommendation to the City Council approve the Amendment based on Scenario 2. At the February 22, 2024 meeting, staff will present the existing and proposed zoning for public hearing and first reading of the ordinance. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: There are no costs aside from in-kind contributions associated with the proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment. LEGAL ANALYSIS: The proposed Amendment applies existing policies in the Land Use Element to lands within the City Limits. To approve the Amendment, the City Council must find that the change is consistent with CPMC 17.10, Zoning Map and Text Amendments. This includes demonstrated compliance with the Statewide Planning Goals, applicable policies of the Central Point Comprehensive Plan, the State Transportation Planning Rule (OAR 660-012-0060) and sufficiency of available or planned public facilities and services. Staff has prepared the application and provided written Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law. These findings of fact demonstrate that the proposed Amendment provides needed housing in balance with employment needs and is consistent with the approval criteria summarized above. A Traffic Impact Analysis was conducted and found that the proposed change would decrease traffic impacts and consequently no significant impact is found to the City’s transportation system. Additionally, there are public facilities (i.e. water, sewer and stormwater) available and planned to the both sites that are the subject of this application. Note: The Findings for the Zone Map Amendment are consolidated with the Findings for the Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment (CPA-23001). However, the specific findings that support the zone map amendment are specifically identified by staff. COUNCIL GOALS/STRATEGIC PLAN ANALYSIS: Strategic Priority: Community Investment, Goal 6 – Meet the housing needs of Central Point residents and businesses. . Strategy 1 – Rely on the findings, policies and implementation of the City’s Comprehensive Plan Population, Housing and Economic Elements. Strategy 2 – Support and Capitalize on opportunities to collaborate on projects with agencies who specialize in providing affordable housing. Strategy 3 – Pursue grant and/or Urban Renewal assistance in making housing affordable and accessible to residents. Comment: The proposed Amendment is targeted toward implementing the City’s Housing and Economic Elements to provide both residential and employment uses. The City recognizes it has a housing shortage of approximately 2,800 housing units and affordability for all segments of the population is challenging. The proposed Amendment leverages partnerships with local land developers who have prepared preliminary plans to provide affordable, accessible housing in Central Point in the near-term. 7.C Packet Pg. 202 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Open the public hearing to receive testimony on the proposed Minor Zoning Map Amendment and: 1) Forward the Ordinance to a 2nd Reading with or without changes; or 2) Deny the Amendment. RECOMMENDED MOTION: I move to forward the Ordinance Amending the Central Point Zoning Map on properties located at the intersection of Taylor Road and North Haskell Street and 1777 East Pine Street to support increased housing production to a second reading.

Linear unit (horizontal): International Foot (ift). Lineal unit (vertical): U.S. Survey Foot (usft). Vertical datum: North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) Geodetic Information: Datum: North American Datum (NAD) of 1983 (2011) epoch 2010.00 System: Oregon Coordinate Reference System Zone: Grants Pass-Ashland Projection: Transverse Mercator Latitude of grid origin: 41%%17645'00" N Longitude of central meridian: 123%%17620'00" W Northing at grid origin: 0.000 m Easting at central meridian: 50,000.000 m (164,041.995 ift) Scale factor on central meridian: 1.000 043 (exact) All bearings and distances shown hereon are projected (grid) values based on the projection definition herein and above. This projection was utilized in order to minimize the difference between projected (grid) distances and horizontal (ground) distances at the topographic surface within the design area of this coordinate system. The basis of bearings for this survey is Geodetic North. Note that the grid bearings shown or implied hereon do not equal Geodetic North due to meridian convergence. Orthometric heights (elevations) are referenced to the NAVD88 datum and were attained via solution sets obtained from the NGS OPUS website for static GPS occupations utilizing said Trimble R10, This survey was conducted utilizing the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) referenced to the National Spatial Reference System (NSRS). NSRS coordinate values are based on solution sets obtained from the NGS OPUS website for GPS static occupations utilizing a Trimble R10 at a set base station and a second R10, Trimble TSC7 with Trimble Access software and RTK methods. Established primary control and ties to found monuments utilizing said RTK methods and Trimble R10 equipment. From which, utilized classical terrestrial methods and said Trimble S7 robotic instrument with said Trimble TSC7 data collector to establish all remaining control, monument ties and topographic locations. GENERAL SURVEY NOTES The property and right-of-way lines depicted hereon, are based on limited ties to found monuments and record subdivision plats. Said lines are approximate locations only and are not to be construed or utilized for their true locations. Contours: 0.5-foot contour interval; 1-foot index contour interval. All existing underground utilities, as depicted hereon, were located within the tolerance zone, as marked on the ground by affected agencies and utility companies. Oregon Administrative Rules Chapter 952, Division 1, Definitions, 952-001-0010 (25), states: "tolerance zone" means the area within 24 inches surrounding the outside dimensions of all sides of an underground facility.

At the meeting staff presented the budget limitations of 2.350 million dollars and options on how to proceed. The Council asked for a hybrid option of utilizing the design configuration of a “pin-wheel” to re-orient the fields and utilize contractor and City operations staff to complete as much of the project as possible. Additionally, Council requested building the first three fields as standard fields with dirt infields and grass outfields. Staff has met with the Moore Family and the Central Point Little League and they concur with this option. After the meeting staff met with our City Engineer to put a package together for all the clearing and demolition of the site as well as building all of the utilities. It was decided to do a bid alternative for the construction of one field to see the overall price options available. Construction would start as early as June of this year. The cost of expenditures in 2024 for Phase 1 will determine the scope of Phase 2 of the project, including potential turf infields and additional amenities. If Council concurs with the staff recommendations, fund raising would start immediately. Phase 1 would include three fields, some pathways and the restroom/concession. No lighting would be 9.A Packet Pg. 223 part of this package. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: The City of Central Point has spent approximately 1.1 million on the project as of this point. Leaving the City approximately $500,000 for the project. Noel and Bret Moore have contributed $600,000 of a possible 1.5 million dollar contribution. The City could contribute an additional $850,000 out of ARPA, Recreation Fee and General Fund Dollars. LEGAL ANALYSIS: Not Applicable. COUNCIL GOALS/STRATEGIC PLAN ANALYSIS: GOAL 2 - Be a city filled with happy, healthy people who are thriving. STRATEGY 1 – Develop and maintain positive partnerships with public and private entities and the community to understand community needs, and leverage resources to develop and deliver opportunities for personal, professional, and/or vocational development. (Recreation Programs, Maker Space, Artisan Corridor, Volunteerism, Community Events, etc.) (Nurturing individuals skills and personal growth is an essential element to Central Point’s vitality. While this is an organic process that must be desired by individuals in the population, the City can make investments that consider and further the goal of providing an environment that is supportive of this objective). STRATEGY 5 – Plan, design, build, and maintain a comprehensive system of sustainable facilities, trails, and park spaces, (setting the highest standards) to provide attractive places people will use and enjoy. Acquire additional lands for active and passive recreation use based on current deficiencies and public demands created by increasing population or the environmental and recreational significance of the area. (Be mindful of the budget and plan trail locations). 9.A Packet Pg. 224 GOAL 3 - Provide opportunities for youth education, recreation, and support. (Kids are the future. Happy, well-adjusted kids are the canary in the coal mine for true community/ family wellbeing). STRATEGY 3 – Provide opportunities for social connection. Identify underrepresented groups and help them participate and feel connected. Increase engagement in physically active recreation, and enjoyment of parks and trails to foster active, healthy lifestyles. Reduce barriers for accessing programs, services, places, spaces, and information. STRATEGY 4 – Expand on existing recreation programming to reach a broader and more diverse audience. Research successful recreation programs to ensure that we are offering activities that will best meet the current and future needs of our citizens.

This amendment was recommended, given that historically the City has had difficulty finding a sufficient number of volunteers for this commission. Prior to adoption of Ordinance No. 2107, at least 5 members had to be residents within City limits, and the 6th and 7th members could be either a resident of the City or reside within the UGB, own or operate a business within the City limits, or be a teacher with School District No. 6 working within City limits. The 2023 revision modified the membership requirements such that a minimum of 4 members must reside within City limits and the remaining 3 could establish membership as provided above. Recently City staff was approached by an individual seeking to become a member of the Arts Commission. The individual has a Central Point address, but does not live within City limits or the UGB, and has family members with longstanding businesses in City limits with which she is involved, but is not an owner. The individual has requested that the City consider further expanding the requirements for membership, in order to allow individuals such as herself with longstanding interest in Central Point, an opportunity to serve on the commission. To that end, the question for Council to consider is whether it seeks to build in additional flexibility to the membership requirements. Such flexibility could include some, or all of the following: • Allow residents in the City’s URA to be included for purposes of positions 5-7, in addition to residents of the UGB; • Allow an owner of a City business, or an individual with a close family member who has a business in City limits to serve. In such event close family member would need to be defined; for example spouse, domestic partner, child, parent….. At present, if a spouse 9.B Packet Pg. 227 owns a business, the other spouse cannot serve on the commission unless he or she is also a business owner. • Or clarify that only a titled business owner can serve on the Commission to avoid confusion in the future (note this code change is not necessary but could help resolve confusion on the part of the public). Or the Council can direct staff to leave the language as-is. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: LEGAL ANALYSIS: COUNCIL GOALS/STRATEGIC PLAN ANALYSIS: Strategic Priority – Community Culture GOAL 3 - Develop urban agriculture opportunities to connect farm to market in Central Point. STRATEGY 5 – Create and support public art that celebrates our community. Continue to collaborate with local businesses and schools to develop public art projects such as the mosaic project. Showcase local artists whenever possible. Use art to celebrate community diversity and multiculturalism. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Direct staff whether to bring back future ordinance changes. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Motion not required. 9.B Packet Pg. 228 City of Central Point Staff Report to Council ISSUE SUMMARY TO: City Council DEPARTMENT: Police Department FROM: Scott Logue, Police Captain MEETING DATE: February 22, 2024 SUBJECT: Taser Replacement ACTION REQUIRED: Information/Direction RECOMMENDATION: Not Applicable In August of 2023, it was brought to our attention that Axon, the parent company of Taser, has discontinued our current Taser model. This means that our current Tasers will no longer be supported or serviceable, including having replacement batteries or cartridges available. Axon has two options available, of which, we believe the Taser 10 best suits our needs. This comes at a significant cost, however; Axon has made available a five year subscription-type plan that will spread the payments over time. We have been able to push our timeline out for this changeover, so that we begin the plan after July 1, 2024. As such, that should allow for me to absorb the first payment into our current biennial budget, rather than having to request a supplemental budget. Likewise, I will attempt to plan for the subsequent annual payments to be within the confines of later biennial budgets. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Taser Memo 2.
